Construction Contracting: A Practical Guide to Company Management , 7th Edition 7th Edition

Arrived in good condition. Should your professor choose not to use this book as an example of wasted money, I have a couple of suggestions for tossing that back in his/her face: it makes a good paperweight (because we still use paper on occasion, and dorms can be drafty when your neighbors illicitly have the windows open) and acceptable desk pillow (no more faces full of spiral notebook rings, just an oddly smushed side), it smashes wayward bugs into gooey oblivion, and it is a comparatively soft surface to bang your head on when you're sick of school about 2/3 of the way through the semester.

This book is really informative and helpful for grasping all the aspects for construction contracting, but it's incredibly boring unless paired with practical applications. In other words where typical textbooks would attempt illustrations to assist the reader in comprehension this book makes no such attempt. Also, the sections of the chapters could be better organised. Some of the sections should become subsections for better comprehension. The information is all there and the author has done a thorough job, it just needs more to assist in teaching.

I got this book and it was so nice. The information includes with many detail of construction industry that you should know. However, it is a bit hard to read and understand in the first level coz in each section: the frist paragraph and the last paragraph repeat the same sentence that is overwhelm states.

Got this as a text book for a class literally called "Construction Contracting". It is a pretty thorough overview of the entire industry, from contracts to financing to corporate structure. I'll definitely be keeping this book as a future reference throughout my career in construction and contracting.

This is a very helpful book I used it in my construction managment class. The book had example contracts and other documents that you will come across in the industry.

Purchased this book for a class. It covers a lot of material, but is suprisingly easy to read. It presents the information in clear and easily understood manner. Great book for anyone looking to get started in the construction industry.

This is a nice book, I really like the heavy cover that really helps to conserve it in a good state.

The book is used but in perfect conditions, delivered perfectly in time.The book was rated as good but for me is used like new.

It was in some rough condition. The spine was broken in a couple places and the edges were quite worn.
