About this book

Megaprojects and Risk: An Anatomy of Ambition by Flyvbjerg, Bent. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521009461.

Promoters of multi-billion dollar land-use development megaprojects systematically misinform parliaments, the public and the media in order to get them approved and built. This book not only explores these issues, but suggests practical solutions drawing on theory and scientific evidence from the several hundred projects in twenty nations and five continents. It is of interest to students, scholars, planners, economists, auditors, politicians and concerned citizens.
