Entrepreneurship Reviews

This is a useful book for students of entrepreneurship because it brings together a number of excellent works from the social sciences whose focus is broadly relevant to the subject of entrepreneurship. It is undoubtedly worth reading just to revisit Joseph Schumpeter's theories of entrepreneurship and Rosabeth Moss Kanter's concepts on corporate enterprise * Luke Pittaway, Business History *
