To help construction lawyers understand and work with the sweeping changes of these widely used general conditions, The 2017 A201 Deskbook identifies and analyzes every significant change made to the A201 document, and also includes for the first time a section-by-section critical analysis of the A201, with case law interpretations and practice tips.
