In FIDIC 2017: A definitive guide to claims and disputes, Nicholas Brown has produced a magisterial discussion of the claims and dispute process under the FIDIC second editions of Contract. The quality and usefulness of this book is hard to overemphasise. Covering as it does the processes of claim, entitlement, Dispute Board determinations and enforcement, and arbitration under the ICC Arbitration Rules, it will serve as a handbook for owners, contractors, project administrators, lawyers and arbitrators, for which all will be grateful.
