In "How Big Things Get Done," Oxford professor Bent Flyvbjerg, the world’s leading megaproject expert, uncovers why so many ambitious projects fail and how to make them succeed. Drawing on vivid examples like the Empire State Building, Apple's iPod, and the Sydney Opera House, Flyvbjerg identifies common pitfalls in judgment and decision-making that lead to failure.

This insightful, data-driven book offers research-based principles for success, such as understanding your odds, planning slow but acting fast, building from small components, and mastering the unknowns. With endorsements from Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman and architect Frank Gehry, this book is an essential guide for completing projects on time and within budget.
