It is written by one of the world's leading authorities on global engineering practices with decades of research, 40 years of teaching engineering, and 50 years of working as a professional engineer in several countries.

This book also lists effective ways to use the latest digital collaboration tools and artificial intelligence apps, as well as how to estimate costs, generate commercial value, and develop cost-effective sustainable solutions.
