This book presents the proceedings of a major conference held in April 1991 at the Manchester Business School, examining current issues and new directions in practice management. Practice management is an area of growing concern to construction professionals and contributions have been actively sought by the editors to reflect the 'state of the art' in research and to suggest directions for future developments making the book relevant to all construction-related disciplines.
