RESEARCH
One of the most important roles for any business
school is the generation of intellectual capital
– the continuous development of new insights and
new models for the discovery of best practices
that have direct relevance to managers today.
Schools that deliver cutting edge research not
only provide real value to the academic
community but also ensure that their programs
are consistently renewed with new insights,
which have a direct effect on the business
community.

Newly Published Books
The Economics
of Entrepreneurship
by Simon C. Parker
Cambridge University Press, 2009 |
 |
Entrepreneurship
is an integral part of economic change and growth. 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.
