Yet until recently it has been largely neglected by economists. In The Economics of Entrepreneurship, Simon C. Parker draws on theoretical insights and recent empirical findings to show how economics can contribute to our understanding of entrepreneurship. The book is based on an earlier work, The Economics of Self-employment and Entrepreneurship (Cambridge University Press, 2004), that has quickly become an essential reference for academics researching the economics of entrepreneurship. Written in a more accessible style, this book contains much that made this earlier work so successful and, in addition, includes improved pedagogical features and new material on the theory of the firm, spin-offs, nascent entrepreneurship, growth-enhancing knowledge spillovers and social entrepreneurship. It can be used both as a reference text for academics from a variety of disciplines and as a textbook for graduate students"--Provided by publisher OP - 550 CN - HB615 .P369 2009eb SN - 9780511691379 SN - 0511691378 SN - 9780511817441 SN - 0511817444 SN - 9780511687648 SN - 0511687648 SN - 0511690630 SN - 9780511690631 SN - 9780521899604 SN - 0521899605 SN - 9780521728355 SN - 0521728355 KW - Entrepreneurship.
