'In their comprehensive coverage of a wide range of issues, Ochieng, Price and Moore provide a unique and really useful introduction to an impressive range of topics, in an accessible and engaging style. Case studies and discussion questions provide opportunities for reflection as well as making this into an invaluable teaching resource.' - Will Hughes, Professor of Construction Management and Economics and School Director of International Relations, University of Reading, UK
'At a time when global construction markets are becoming increasingly important, this text provides an extremely useful guide to navigating the field. Its approach to global project management, which takes account of the demands of cultural complexity and uncertainty using real-world projects, will prove useful to a range of undergraduates and postgraduates, and construction practitioners.' - Andrew King, MSc Quantity Surveying Course Leader, Nottingham Trent University, UK

Reseña del editor:

The first textbook of its kind, taking a uniquely global approach to project management in construction. Using a wealth of case studies from around the world to explain theory and practice, the authors take a business-oriented, decision-making approach to project management and the challenges it faces in the modern world. The book covers topics highly relevant to the challenges and opportunities currently facing the global construction industry, including managing culturally-diverse and globally dispersed teams, international project finance and global stakeholders in projects.
Management of Global Construction Projects is essential reading for both students of construction management and professionals looking to understand construction project management in a truly global context.
