The quality of a product or service is a measure of its ability to satisfy customer requirements. This satisfaction can be assured by the operation of a quality system which will ensure that specified requirements are met consistently and economically. The Management of Quality in Construction provides the reader with a knowledge of the principles of quality management and an understanding of how they may successfully be applied in the particular circumstances of the construction industry. The areas covered range from an historical review of traditional methods of assuring quality in the industry and how contractual arrangements have evolved; to an interpretation of quality system standards in the context of construction. Examples are given which highlight specific areas; and specialist chapters on organization structures and the techniques of quality auditing are included.

A great WOWBy CustomerA standard beautiful Dover edition; I dont understand what some previous commentators are referring to.I also have the more "authentic" Paderewski edition; but Mikulis is more interesting to me; as he was not only Chopins prominent student; but a great teacher for coming generations of great artists; like Rosenthal and Katchalski; whose playing we may hear today; also in Youtube.The text is very rich with beautiful suggestions of fingerings; many of them not of the style to which we have been accustomed in later traditions.How exciting that this master; who was watching Chopin and consulting him; has provided us with such a treasure of advice.Now I have also ordered his edition of the Nocturnes and Walzes; some of which I can play; and also the Etudes; which I can not play; but I am eager to study Mikulis suggestions and compare his edition to the urtexts; which I have.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Thanks Dover for another wonderful edition!By amy strubleWonderful Dover Edition of Chopins Mazurkas. Please do not be deterred from the one star reviews. I sincerely believe they are reviewing another edition. The print is large and dark which I always expect from Dover. There are 51 Mazurkas in this edition and the book is 149 pages long. Stands perfectly on my piano without closing or falling over. I appreciate that so much as that is usually a complaint I have with piano books. Chopin is my favorite composer and hope to be able to one day learn all the Mazurkas. Many people believe they are inadequate compared to his scherzos and ballades. I believe the Mazurkas are the best pieces Chopin composed. I think they were the most dear to him as he wrote more of them than anything else. My favorites are Op. 30 No. 1; Op 63 No 3 and Op 33 No 4. Such short works in length; but say so much to the heart.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Good collection; low qualityBy Marcelo A. ChaconI bought this because I wanted to have all the Chopins mazurcas in one book. I didnt check the size of the book (really small); so it is dificult to me reading the scores while a play piano. Also; because this books is a reprint of another one; some musical notes are missing.
