It is thoroughly up to date with some exceptionally good cross referencing and thoroughly researched' Building Engineer 'refreshingly straightforward' Construction Law 'Harris, Planterose & Tecks stands head and shoulders above the rest [the commentaries of the Act] in terms not only of its comprehensiveness and user-friendliness but also of the frequency with which it has been updated.'
