A brilliant woman who happened to disrobe for a living, Gypsy Rose Lee was commonly known as the "intellectual stripper." Born Rose Louise Hovick in 1911, she had meager beginnings, no formal education, and a mentally ill stage mother who criticized and demeaned her daughter. Despite these hurdles, Gypsy climbed to the peak of every career she tackled: she triumphed as an actress, novelist, playwright, artist, political activist, and, ultimately, a star. Appendices cover Gypsy's will and estate, the original production and Broadway revivals of her play Gypsy, and complete filmographies and discographies. The book contains many rare and never-before-published photographs.

Entrepreneurship is critical to economic growth, but it cannot flourish without open markets. Entrepreneurs can only be expected to take risks in 'open settings' where individuals and firms are free to contract with one another. In this important book, leading economists explain and document the role of open markets, within and across national boundaries, in facilitating entrepreneurship, innovation, and economic growth. The main message of this book is especially timely given growing concerns in developed countries about off-shoring and openness to trade. The book includes discussions of 'star' scientists-entrepreneurs and their positive impacts on local growth, the globalization of venture capital, information technology, entrepreneurship and cities, culture, off-shoring, trade competition and the expansion of world trade.This book will be welcomed by policy makers at all levels of government, university leaders and academic scholars in entrepreneurship, business and management, innovation, economics and sociology.
