Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Psychology of ConstructionWhat Buildings Have Taught Me About PeopleConstruction is usually described in terms of materials, techniques and deadlines.This book looks beyond the walls.The Psychology of Construction explores the human reality behind building sites - the minds, emotions, motivations and invisible wounds of those who build. Through real stories, philosophical reflection and practical insight, Fernando Jorge Marques Lopes reveals how dignity, trust, language, scarcity, leadership and purpose shape not only projects, but lives.Drawing from decades of experience on construction sites and informed by psychology, sociology and philosophy, this book shows that productivity and humanity are not opposites - they are deeply connected. A delayed payment, a careless word, a moment of recognition, or a shared sandwich at ten o'clock can change everything.Structured in four parts - origins and shadows, mind and spirit, invisible wounds, and leadership with practical tools - the book offers both reflection and action.
