ConclusionsReviewsPhilip Britton and Matthew Bell have accumulated decades of research and teaching, culminating in this authoritative book ... This book is powerful rebuttal to any denial that there is something seriously wrong in this area, both in the UK and elsewhere. --Housing After Grenfell Blog This book is an excellent analysis of residential construction law in a multitude of jurisdictions ... I would recommend this as a very important and well researched analysis of the history of construction law, the current status of construction law and where it may be heading. --BDPS News This much-needed and excellent book fills a real gap in the residential construction field. It is a practical, comprehensive guide, packed with highly authoritative analysis and all presented in a most readable form. One of the book's many strengths is that it takes a comparative approach, discussing problems and remedies in Ireland, New Zealand, the different states in Australia and in each of the three main jurisdictions within the UK. --Her Honour Frances Kirkham CBE, Chartered Arbitrator, Adjudicator and Mediator, Atkin Chambers, UK Author InformationPhilip Britton is former Visiting Professor and Director at the Centre of Construction Law, King's College London, UK.
