摘要：This edited book features contributions by 42 different authors; it contains a total of 22 chapters, including the introduction by the three editors, and these are spread across 550 pages including illustrations and indexes (by author and subject). The text is supported by a total of 25 figures and 28 tables. From the very outset, the editors set the stage for the book by naming the introduction “Towards the Third Wave of Project Management” and argue for the appropriateness of describing the contents of their volume thus. The bulk of the work consists of six parts (each containing three to four chapters): I) “History and Foundations”, II) “Industry and Context”, III) “Strategy and Decision-making”, IV) “Governance and Control”, V) “Contracting and Relationships” and VI) “Organizing and Learning”.
