This revised edition of an established classic textbook brings the subject right up to date. It applies economic theory to the formation of demand on the construction industry and to the way the industry responds. This edition provides a topical assessment of the implication for competition of new methods of procurement, includes a new chapter on rehabilitation, repair and maintenance, and extends the use of theory to issues such as the problems of appropriate technology for developing countries, and contractors' diversification.

She has previously been employed as an economist to the contracting company Richard Costain Ltd, at the National Economic Development Office, and as Senior Lecturer at the Bartlett School of Architecture and Planning, University College London. She has been a consultant to many international and governmental organizations, including the UK Ministry of Overseas Development, the World Bank, the International Labour Organization and DANIDA, the Danish aid organization. She is the author of several books on the contruction industry, including Analysis of the British Construction Industry, and the author or editor (with others) of several books on the way contractors take their management decisions.
