Perspectives in Entrepreneurship by Kevin Mole

Perspectives in Entrepreneurship by Kevin Mole

An alternative to the 'how to' entrepreneurship textbooks which offer practical business plans. This book is a higher level textbook offering different critical perspectives on entrepreneurship as an academic discipline, written for students by top academics and researchers in their respective fields.

'Kevin Mole and Monder Ramconclude this wide-ranging volume by observing that this is a very positive time to study entrepreneurshipOn the basis of the diverse approaches thoughtfully covered in this volume, this is a sentiment which will be echoed by future generations of student readers.' - David Storey, Professor of Enterprise, University of Sussex 'This book brings together a welcome but seldom offered exposure to, and critique of, different approaches to the study of entrepreneurship. It elucidates these approaches, and their merits and demerits, very effectively through well chosen studies across chapters. It is a valuable addition to the literature on entrepreneurship and should be read by any serious student in this field.' - Ken O'Neill, Professor Emeritus of Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development, University of Ulster 'Conventional business education too often provides a single theoretical approach for examining complex business issues. As a result, students and even some faculty forget that theoretical models are man-made tools, not literal representations of reality. This book's collection of many different perspectives on entrepreneurship is a rare resource for helping students and other readers develop the capacity to frame this important business phenomenon from multiple points of view.' - Anne Colby, Consulting Professor, Stanford University; co-author of Rethinking Undergraduate Business Education
