3.0 out of 5 stars The management of (limited) contruction..., May 18, 2007
This review is from: The Management of Construction: A Project Lifecycle Approach (Paperback)
I am surprised that the project samples are only limited with pipelines.

In a world of shopping mall, high rise residence and office tower contructions, none of these projects exist in this book.

Buy it only if you are in pipeline construction...!
