This is a comprehensive and in-depth book covering an evolving discipline that is undergoing a technological modernisation, particularly with building information modelling(Civil Engineering, 1 August 2014) Modern Construction Management is a textbook for advanced studies in construction management. It is a substantial volume of 572 pages with general descriptions, partly detailed texts, numerous examples and references. (Construction Management and Economics, 8 January 2014) I highly recommend the landmark and very modern best practices oriented textbook Modern Construction Management, Seventh Edition by Frank Harris, Ph.D., and Ronald McCaffer, Ph.D., to any students and graduates in civil engineering, construction management, building and quantity surveying, corporate leaders, and government policy makers seeking a clear and all encompassing guide to the current business, technical, environmental, and societal issues and challenges of modern construction management.
