From the reviews: "The book has sixteen chapters grouped in five parts, and covers a wide range of topics in regional economics, innovation, and regional growth, and with varied approaches. ... The editors and contributors have made a great effort to link the majority of the essays with each other. ... Summing up, their book is a very useful one for empirical economists who need some theoretical background in dealing with regional innovation from an applied perspective, and it is also an important theoretical contribution to regional science." (Ernest Miguelez and Rosina Moreno, Journal of Regional Science, Vol. 51 (1), 2011)
