Practical ADR Handbook

The Practical ADR Handbook, as its name suggests, takes a practical, 'how-to' approach to alternative dispute resolution. It discusses the developments in the UK within the last two years, which have seen a substantial rise in the amount of ADR. The book discusses in detail the implementation of the Woolf Reforms and how the new Rules work in practice, and explores the relation between mediation and arbitration. It also covers the role of adjudication in construction disputes.
