Project management is now being recognised as a distinct discipline, rather than a collection of "add-on" techniques for cost control and organisational structure. This new book presents the theory and techniques of project management, with practrical guidance, particularly in relation to multi-disciplinary engineering projects, both large and small, in the UK and over seas.
