Summary, etc. Looks at fundamental economic theories and concepts with respect to the construction industry, and explains their merits and shortcomings, sometimes by looking at real life examples. Drawing on current research the contributors focus specifically on industry performance, productivity measurement, construction in national accounts, comparing international construction costs and prices, and comparing international productivity. The scope of the book is international, addressing problems that arise everywhere from individual project documentation, right up to national industrial accounts. It is essential reading for postgraduate construction students and researchers, students of industrial economics, construction economists and policy-makers.
