Book Reviews of Design-Build Lessons Learned (2001 Edition)

Book Review: Very Helpful
Summary: 5 Stars

I am an architect that has been trying to understand what I'm about to get into in being part of a design-build team. I found this book really easy to read and it gave me some perspectives on liability, especially ownership of my design documents. It's written in a case-note summary approach, so I could quickly find the point of the case and then see what the facts are. I liked the author's practical suggestions on what lessons are to be learned. The approach is a nice balance to the other books out there on design-build, such as Bill Quatman's book on Design-Build for Design Professionals, which I also really like and recommend to architects and engineers.
