The two-volume set reprints 56 papers previously published in the Journal of Economic History, Enterprise and Society, Business History Review, other scholarly journals, and compilations as far back as 1938. The 30 papers in the first volume locate the sources of entrepreneurship in the medieval and early modern economy, describe entrepreneurship during the industrialization period, and examine the social and institutional context of local business networks and access to finance. Volume two explores inter-industry comparisons with sections on textiles, metals and manufacturing, grocers, transportation, information technology, agriculture, and natural resources. The selection focuses on the entrepreneur as an individual rather than on the firm, the family background and personality of the entrepreneur, and the skills displayed by successful entrepreneurs in different industries.

Recenzijas

This exciting collection, framed by an authoritative introduction, puts the intellectual excitement back into the study of entrepreneurship. We escape from the self-imposed straightjacket of high-tech start-ups to explore the role of entrepreneurship in multiple geographical settings over the last thousand years, as well as in a wide range of institutional forms. This volume is transformational. -- Geoffrey Jones, Harvard Business School, US
