520			_aThis eBook is international in its outlook and will be useful for those involved in claims on a worldwide basis. It is essential reading for anyone who is preparing a claim for the first time and or those of us with experience aplenty, the eBook provides an excellent aide-memoire and will ensure that nothing is missed. The book is, without doubt, fully comprehensive and goes through the preparation of a claim from A to Z. Claims may be related to variations, delays caused by the employer and neutral events which could involve extensions of time, prolongation costs, acceleration and disruption, all of which are fully explained. Claims are nearly always prepared by reference to the conditions of contract. The book refers to the FIDIC conditions, but this should not put off those who are involved with contracts where other standard conditions apply. The comprehensive nature of the book would easily enable the reader to slot the advice provided on its pages into other standard conditions of contract.
