"As the number, complexity, and scope of large engineering projects (LEPs) increase worldwide, the huge stakes may endanger the survival of corporations and threaten the stability of countries that approach these projects unprepared.".
"The book is based on an international research project that analyzed sixty LEPs, among them the Boston Harbor cleanup; a subway in Ankara, Turkey; a hydro dam on the Caroni River in Venezuela; and the construction of offshore oil platforms west of Flor, Norway. The authors use the research results to develop an experience-based theoretical framework that will allow managers to understand and respond to the complexity and uncertainty inherent in all LEPs.
In addition to managers and scholars of large-scale projects, the book will be of interest to those studying the relationships between institutions and strategy, risk management, and corporate governance in general."--BOOK JACKET.
