Book SynopsisThis guide will help the contractor's staff overcome some of the difficulties encountered on a typical international contract using FIDIC forms. The majority of FIDIC-based contracts use the Red Book (Conditions of Contract for Construction), so this book concentrates on the use of those particular forms. Supplementary comments are included in Appendix C for the Yellow Book (Plant & Design-Build) recommended for use where the contractor has a design responsibility. The Contractor is represented on site by the Contractor's Representative who carries the overall responsibility for all the Contractor's on-site activities. In order to provide guidance to the Contractor's Representative and his staff, this book is divided into five sections: A summarized general review of the Red Book from the Contractor's perspective.

Book SynopsisIn 1999, a suite of three new conditions of contract was published by FIDIC, following the basic structure and wording harmonised and updated around the previous FIDIC Design-Build and Turnkey Contract (the 1992 ‘‘Orange Book’’). These conditions, known as the ‘‘FIDIC rainbow, were the Conditions of C- tract for: l Construction, the so-called Red Book, for works designed by the Employer l Plant and Design-Build, the so-called Yellow Book, for works designed by the Contractor l EPC/Turnkey Projects, the so-called Silver Book, for works designed by the Contractor The ?rst is intended for construction works where the Employer is responsible for the design, as for per the previous so-called Red Book 4th Edition (1987), with an important role for the Engineer. The other two conditions of contract are intended for situations when the Contractor is responsible for the design. The Plant and Design-Build Contract has the traditional Engineer while the EPC/Turnkey Contract has a two-party arran- ment, generally with an Employer’s Representative as one of the parties.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews: “Book is written by an engineer and a lawyer. … The Jaeger / Hok work does refer to awards. … provides wide-ranging references not only to decisions of UK courts but also to sources in other jurisdictions. It therefore provides a real service in alerting readers to the need to bear in mind when specialist legal advice may be needed. … useful flow charts to assist the understanding of the operation of the FIDIC forms. … work provides rather more general guidance on legal aspects.” (Humphrey Lloyd, The International Construction Law Review, 2010)Table of ContentsLegal Systems.- Conflict of Laws.- English and International Standard Forms of Contract.- Civil Law Business Terms.- Development Stages.- Understanding FIDIC: A Civil Law Approach.- FIDIC Contract Documents.- Employer’s Duties.- Contractor’s Duties.- Design Responsibility.- Engineer.- Time for Completion.- Variations.- Tests.- Certificates.- Defects Notification Period and (Post Contractual) Defects Liability.- Termination.- Discharge, Frustration and Force Majeure.- Risk, Insurance and Exceptional Risk.- Bonds, Guarantees, Letters of Credit.- Claim Management.- Disputes.- Samples.- Delay Schedule.

Book SynopsisProvides a clear and comprehensive guide to the 2017 FIDIC contractswritten by a member of the FIDIC Updates Task Group FIDIC contracts are the most widely used engineering standard form contracts internationally but until 2017 the three main forms (the Red, Yellow and Silver Books) had not been amended or updated for nearly two decades, since the first editions were published in 1999. Written by a specialist lawyer who was member of the FIDIC Updates Task Group responsible for writing the new contracts, this book examines in detail the many substantial changes they have introduced. After providing an overview the contracts are examined clause by clause with the aim of showing how each compares and contrasts with the others and how the second editions compare and contrast with the first. The first chapter describes how the Red, Yellow and Silver Books evolved from earlier contract forms and the distinctive characteristics of each, before providing an overview of the updates,

Book SynopsisIn September 1999, FIDIC introduced its new Suite of Contracts, which included a new Red, Yellow, Silver and Green forms of contract. The new Red Book was intended to replace the 1992 fourth edition of the Red Book, with the ambition that its use would cease with time. This ambition has not materialised and is unlikely to do so in the future. Despite the importance of the 1999 Forms, there has been very little published on the new concepts adopted in them and how they interact with the previous forms. This important work considers these aspects together with the many developments affecting the fourth edition of the Red Book that have taken place since 1997, when the second edition of this book was published, and relates them to key contracting issues. It is written by a chartered engineer, conciliator and international arbitrator with wide experience in the use of the FIDIC Forms and in the various dispute resolution mechanisms specified in them. ITrade Review'The great merit of this book is that [it] assimilates the complexities of the form and focuses upon the practicalities.' Arbitration 'One of the great virtues of the book is that it is almost a work on construction law and practice in the international sphere....It is quite common for books to be described as indispensable but that is an apt description of what looks to be a classic text. It is also remarkably good value for money.' Judge Humphrey Lloyd QC, International Construction Law Review, 2005.Table of ContentsPart I Background and Concepts of the Red Book;.

Book SynopsisThis book contains a compilation of high-yield, at-a-glance summaries in quick reference format for various topics that are frequently encountered by pathologists in the daily practice or on the boards. The focus is not organ-based histologic criteria, but rather everything else that goes into pathologic diagnoses but is difficult to keep committed to memory. The emphasis is on immunohistochemistry, special stains, grading systems, molecular markers, tumor syndromes, and helpful clinical references. Also included are morphologic summaries that encompass high-yield material cutting across all organ systems, such as an illustrated guide for microorganisms, tumor differentials, and an illustrated glossary of pathologic descriptors.The book has a unique format in that the information is presented primarily in tables and diagrams accompanied by brief and to-the-point explanatory text. The guiding principle was to boil the information down to the essentials but with just enough commentary to be accessible to a newcomer to pathology and to serve as a quick reference to a practicing pathologist. In the 7 years since its initial publication, there have been considerable advances in surgical pathology, particularly immunohistochemical stains, molecular diagnostics, and histologic grading schemes. In the second edition, the content has been thoroughly updated to incorporate these developments, while retaining the overall scope and concise format of the first edition. In addition, the reader will find summaries for many new topics as well as multiple new cartoon illustrations and diagrams. Table of ContentsImmunostains: Introduction.- Immunostains: Solid Tumors.- Immunostains: Hematopoietic System.- Predictive Markers.- Immunostains: Antibody Index/Solid Tumors.- Immunostains: Antibody Index/Hematopoietuc System.- Special Stains.- Grading (and Classification) Quick Reference: Solid Tumors.- Grading (and Classification) Quick Reference: Hematopoietic System.- Tumor Genetics and Cytogenetics: Solid Tumors.- Tumor Genetics and Cytogenetics: Hematopoietic System.- Tumor Syndromes.- Quick Clinical References for Pathologists.- Potpourri of Quick Morphologic References.- Quick Size References.- It looks like WHAT?
