Lock is an independent consultant and university lecturer specializing in project management in the UK, and author of some 25 books for Gower. His text offers an introduction to the basics—project planning and controlling costs, cash and progress, and change—for those who are new to project management, such as people managing simple construction projects for small, perhaps family-run, businesses. Later chapters, for more experienced readers, explain methods applicable to larger companies and more complex projects, including resource scheduling, complex plans, useful computer software, project organization, risk management, and handover and close-out.
