Rezensionen

'...this is a very valuable addition to the literature on small firms, one that would save research students and academics a lot of hard slog and one that deserves to be widely read.' - Peter Gripaios, Environment and Planning

'This book is written by three of the most prolific academics in the field of entrepreneurship and enterprise policy It combines theoretical understanding with solidly derived empirical data to make this book concise and informative. It is very difficult to find a book that charts enterprise policy over a decade let alone over 30 years in such an invaluable and insightful manner.' Norin Arshed, International Small Business Journal
