Köp båda 2 för 1956 krIn this important monograph on entrepreneurship in the technology-intensive industries in Sweden between 1989 and 2002, Delmar and Wennberg adopt an evolutionary view. Their multi-level analysis of firm entry, exit, and growth gives empirical content to their imaginative and eclectic blend of industrial economics, organizational ecology, organization theory, and labor market economics. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the forces affecting entrepreneurs in the technologically dynamic sectors of advanced capitalist economies. -- Howard Aldrich, University of North Carolina, US Knowledge Intensive Entrepreneurship taps into a growing trend of entrepreneurship research which recognises that not all start-ups are the same - and specifically that knowledge-intensive firms are important drivers of economic development. By focusing on the birth, growth and exit of knowledge-intensive firms, this book is a valuable addition to the literature which should be of vital interest to scholars and policy-makers alike. -- Simon C. Parker, The University of Western Ontario, Canada
