'This book makes an important contribution that will be most useful to scholars, students and practitioners. It provides a well structured and comprehensive framework of the basic tools that are indispensable to understand the dynamics of innovation in the knowledge intensive service industries that are at the core of advanced economies.'--Cristiano Antonelli, University of Turin and Fellow of the Collegio Carlo Alberto, Italy'Service innovation is now recognised as a critical phenomenon in contemporary economies. The distinguished contributors to this collection highlight major themes in the research literature that has sought to explicate this multifaceted topic, bring fresh perspectives to bear on complex and often contentious issues, and identify important approaches for future study and practice.I strongly recommend this timely and provocative book!'--Ian Miles, University of Manchester, UK'This book represents an important initiative in the refocusing of innovation toward the very heart, though often ignored aspect, of value creation - service. It brings together some of the best thinkers in the service-innovation intersection to address the challenges and issues related to this essential refocusing process. I highly recommend it.'--Stephen L. Vargo, University of Hawai'i, USA
