Book excerpt: This collection draws on international comparisons from the main industrialised countries in a key field - the construction industry. One only has to walk around almost any major city in the industrialised economies of the world to see how well the construction industry is doing and this study is an analysis of a growing field. This internationally focused book has contributions from leading experts and academics in the sphere of construction and analyses such themes as: the construction market over the last 40 years; trends in employment in the industry; the organization of work in construction; and rules and regulations that govern the industry.
