If you are looking for an instructional guide on how to set up a Joint Venture or how to go about it, unfortunately you would be out of luck. This book gives nothing of that sort.
However, what it does provide is information. Like a foundation of information to have if you are interested in having a JV. It is more beneficial for those who are intending to start a JV and already have a potential partner on board. It also highlights women and minority groups and how they can also have a hand, if not an upper-hand, at JV's.
3 stars because it is NOT a guide, but rather a book expanding on the benefits and deficits of JV's. The information on here is solid if you want to really evaluate whether your JV is worth it and gives insight to established JV's so that we understand the mechanics of it.
