Understanding Enterprise by Simon Bridge

Understanding Enterprise by Simon Bridge

Now in its fifth edition, Understanding Enterprise has established itself as one of the most widely respected guides to the discipline, providing a refreshingly perceptive approach to understanding and applying theory.

Bridge and O'Neill's fifth edition is a benchmark text for students, academics, practitioners and policy-makersThis text masterfully provides a powerful description illustrating the intersection between enterprise, entrepreneurship and small business. I strongly recommend. * Amon Simba, Nottingham Business School, UK *
This book challenges a lot of our perceived knowledge on SMEs and entrepreneurs as well as the nature of policy interventions, emphasising as it does that knowledge creation is a process of questioning conventional wisdom. Reading this textbook is important if you want to be part of the process of new knowledge creation. * Anders Lundström, Institute of Innovative Entpreneurship, Sweden *
