Industry Reviews
'. . . this is a book worth reading.' -- Peter Clarke, Entrepreneurship and Innovation
'This is one of the first dedicated attempts to focus on the economics of innovation in the service economy. The book provides a detailed analysis of the conditions that shape and direct the introduction of innovations in services. In so doing it makes an important step towards integrating the analysis of quality and variety into the economics of innovation and knowledge.' -- Cristiano Antonelli, University of Turin and Collegio Carlo Alberto, Italy
'Activities in the service sectors of the economy used to be considered unproductive. Until very recently, they were considered un-innovative, in spite of accounting for well over half of output in the advanced countries of the world. Faiz Gallouj destroys this myth. Not only are service sectors the major investors today in equipment based on information and communications technologies, they are also the source of other innovations, both technological and organisational. His book is a major landmark in our mapping of the so-called service economy.' -- The late Keith Pavitt, formerly of SPRU - Science and Technology Policy Research, University of Sussex, UK
