Descriere
This exciting new major work will provide a compendium of alternative perspectives on research into small business and entrepreneurship. Edited by two world-class experts, the selection reflects the principles of theoretical grounding and empirical rigor. The collection captures the richness and variety of this burgeoning and dynamic field. Small Business and Entrepreneurship is structured within six main areas: theory and theoretical developments, research approaches, populations of entrepreneurs, forms of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial processes and activities, and the outcomes of entrepreneurship.
