Industry Reviews

'If you want to introduce yourself to what is known about new firm startups, then this is the book for you. If you want to look at new firm startups from a different perspective, theory or research method, then this is the book for you. It provides both a rich and broad account of the topic and then brings it all together to tell a compelling, integrated story of starting up new firms while still highlighting conflicts and gaps in our knowledge of the field.' -- Dean Shepherd, Indiana University, Bloomington, US
