The Blackwell Handbook of Entrepreneurship (Handbooks in Management): Amazon.de: Sexton, Donald Sexton, Hans Landstrom: Englische Bücher

Pressestimmen

"Overall, the book fills a gaping hole, not only in international entrepreneurship research but also in teaching. This is a perfect text for a graduate course in International Entrepreneurship. For a researcher in this area, the chapters will be a goldmine, providing not only background for research but also provocative research questions. Don Sexton has done it again: bringing together the best minds in entrepreneurship and providing a state of the art look at international entrepreneurship. Excellent job!" Nancy Upton, Baylor University "The book is an interesting collection on international entrepreneurship from a variety of approaches: pure theoretical frameworks, specific applications within selected countries, and cross-country comparisons. The Handbook of Entrepreneurship serves as a course for someone wanting to learn the 'state of the art' of international entrepreneurship." Patricia G Greene, University of Missouri - Kansas City "The Handbook of Entrepreneurship will undoubtedly become one of the most definitive and highly cited works in the field. Sexton and his co-authors have provided the field of entrepreneurship with a reference that identifies and summarizes the contemporary research in the field, anchoring the book with contributions of major scholars. The authors are to be congratulated for stepping out of the North American focus that is typical of most entrepreneurship books indeed, I think many readers will see the more international exploration of this book as one of its key contributions. Overall, [this book} is very well organized, has excellent content, explores interesting issues, and is certain to be found on the bookshelves of most entrepreneurship scholars." Patricia McDougall, Kelley School of Business, Indiana University - Bloomington "This volume is a mix of theoretical and disucssion articles and forms an excellent summary of the research issues int he field to date. As such, it is a volume for the researcher and the academic business library". Business Management

Book Description

Entrepreneurship studies have suffered from misleading and inaccurate information in the past that makes it hard to separate the myths from realities. By identifying some crucial issues that need to be resolved, and by discussing what past analytical errors may have occurred, this book makes a significant contribution towards enhancing our overall understanding of the entrepreneurial process.

The Handbook of Entrepreneurship brings together the best researchers in the USA and Europe to review the most up-to-date thinking on the most crucial topics in entrepreneurship studies. It is the first book to combine the research activities of Europe and the United States, and reflects cutting-edge research with a multicultural perspective.

The 21 chapters in the Handbook have been written by 28 experts representing a entrepreneurial Who's Who. The chapters are grouped into four major sections: (1) Public Policy, which examines the different contexts in which businesses operate around the world; (2) Growth which looks at the theoretical perspectives and issues of growth, the impact of entrepreneurial teams and strategic alliances, and the management of transition and rapid growth; (3) Finance which covers the broader issues of financing growth, formal and informal venture capital, and initial public offerings; and (4) Strategy/Research Methods which provides an overview of current European and North American research methods and identifies further research needs.

A utterly delightful handbook 24. Oktober 2000

Von colonel alan - Ver�ffentlicht auf Amazon.com

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe

I have been making excessive use of "The Blackwell Handbook of Entrepreneurship" of late. I have to say, this is the finest handbook of entrepreneurship I have ever come across. I am a consummate student of entrepreneurship and I have often grappled with the trouble of carrying four, five, sometimes even ten books on the subject with me at one time. My back was aching and my arms were tired. Now that I have discovered "The Blackwell Handbook of Entrepreneurship", this is no longer a problem - all the entrepreneurship I need in one convenient package! Marvelous!

They are all here: Dennis De's "SME Policy in Europe", Barley and Stockley's "Entrepreneurial Teams and Venture Growth" , Bengt Johannisson's "Networking and Entrepreneurial Growth", and of course the all time favorite, "Conceptual and Empirical Challenges in the Study of Firm Growth" by Per Davidsson and Johan Wiklund! In other words, all the modern classics that the modern innovator needs.

Because I feel so strongly about "The Blackwell Handbook of Entrepreneurship", I wish to lend it my strongest endorsement. It has proved to be a tremendous help for me in my research. Kudos! Bravo! Good Show! Amore! Hooray! Right On! Je Temme! Yo La Tengo! Encore!

One Entrepreneurial Book About Entrepreneurship 4. Dezember 2000

Von "voodoovich" - Ver�ffentlicht auf Amazon.com

When I first sat down to read this book, I was pretty sure I would fall asleep within seconds of starting it. How do I know this: I always fall asleep when I read books about entrepreneurship and I also have a case of narcolepsy. This being said; I was pleasantly suprised that I read it cover to cover in just one setting. I was like "Dizang" (Of course, I speak facetiously. I actually said "Wow".) There is so much about the field of entrepreneurship that I did not know. Who knew SME stood for "small and moderate sized enterprises". Let me tell you, I do now. Little nuggets of wisdom such as this one await to be mined from this book with ease and without the use of nitro, pick axe, or migrant workers.

The only bad portion of the book was that there was no article concerning the term "entrepreneurship". I think it would have been nice to have seen the orgins of the word and how it relates to the current state of the field. I would also like to see why no entrepreneur has entrepreneured a short word for entrepreneurship. I think there is money to made in this field for someone with an entrepreneurial spirit. Let us face it the word is just to long to use that often. I make the following suggestions: money-makership, bill-bankership, and ching-chingship.

I agree with all the statements of Colonel Alan about the quality of this book. Che Sara, Sara. Viva Entrepreneurship.

opened my eyes 9. Oktober 2001

Von Ein Kunde - Ver�ffentlicht auf Amazon.com

I didn't even know what the heck "entrepreneurship" meant before I read this book. It's kind of a long word and I don't have a very good, like, vocabulary. Geez, I even had to look at the title to see how to spell it here.

See, I didn't learn how to read until I was about 10 years old. I was always the "dumb one", you know? So as soon as I could muster up the courage, I skeedadled to South Carolina because I "fit in" here. The real reason I even bought this book is because when somebody saw me carrying it around, they knew that I had got some learnin. It's a big book, and if you want to impress your co-workers, I highly suggest that you carry it around with you and throw around the word, "entrepreurship" a lot. So as you can tell, this is a good book to buy. The end.
