Economic Theory and the Construction Industry by P Hillebrandt
This revised edition of an established classic textbook brings the subject right up to date. It applies economic theory to the formation of demand on the construction industry and to the way the industry responds. This edition provides a topical assessment of the implication for competition of new methods of procurement, includes a new chapter on rehabilitation, repair and maintenance, and extends the use of theory to issues such as the problems of appropriate technology for developing countries, and contractors' diversification.
PATRICIA HILLEBRANDT is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Reading and, since 1967, an economic and management consultant specializing in the construction industry. She is the author of several books on the construction industry, including Analysis of the British Construction Industry and author or editor with others of three books on the way contractors take their management decisions.
