Researching Entrepreneurship $60.72 Entrepreneurship is a phenomenon of tremendous societal importance. It is also an elusive phenomenon, and researching entrepreneurship is therefore fun, fascinatinga "and frustrating at times. In Researching Entrepreneurship, one of the most highly recognized entrepreneurship scholars shares in a personal and readable way his rich experience and ideas on how entrepreneurship can or should be researched. After a comprehensive treatment of entrepreneurship as societal phenomenon and scholarly domain, the core chapters of the book discuss design, sampling, operationalization and analysis issues on several levels of analysis: individual, venture, firm, industry, region and nation. The author provides numerous examples of problems and solutions from real research projects, as well as experienced-based suggestions for further improvements in future work. The book is targeted primarily at doctoral students and other (relative) newcomers to the field of entrepreneurship research. However, taking a fresh, reflective perspective and looking beyond research conventions, it should provide potential for inspiration and food for thought also for experienced entrepreneurship researchers. Moreover, while the examples are taken from entrepreneurship research, the book provides a unique "experienced empirical researcher" (rather than "textbook method expert") treatment of issues that are of equal relevance across the social sciences. This goes for topics such as the role of theory; qualitative vs. quantitative research; validity checking; statistical inference, and replication. Per Davidsson is Professor in Entrepreneurship at Brisbane Graduate School of Management, QUT, Australia, and JAnkAping International Business School, Sweden. He is also Chair of the Research Committee of the Entrepreneurship Division of the (American) Academy of Management.

13 Bankers: The Wall Street Takeover and the Next Financial Meltdown $15.95 Even after the ruinous financial crisis of 2008, America is still beset by the depredations of an oligarchy that is now bigger, more profitable, and more resistant to regulation than ever. Anchored by six megabanks—Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley—which together control assets amounting, astonishingly, to more than 60 percent of the country’s gross domestic product, these financial institutions (now more emphatically “too big to fail”) continue to hold the global economy hostage, threatening yet another financial meltdown with their excessive risk-taking and toxic “business as usual” practices. How did this come to be—and what is to be done? These are the central concerns of 13 Bankers, a brilliant, historically informed account of our troubled political economy. In 13 Bankers, Simon Johnson—one of the most prominent and frequently cited economists in America (former chief economist of the International Monetary Fund, Professor of Entrepreneurship at MIT, and author of the controversial “The Quiet Coup” in The Atlantic)—and James Kwak give a wide-ranging, meticulous, and bracing account of recent U.S. financial history within the context of previous showdowns between American democracy and Big Finance: from Thomas Jefferson to Andrew Jackson, from Theodore Roosevelt to Franklin Delano Roosevelt. They convincingly show why our future is imperiled by the ideology of finance (finance is good, unregulated finance is better, unfettered finance run amok is best) and by Wall Street’s political control of government policy pertaining to it. As the authors insist, the choice that America faces is stark: whether Washington will accede to the vested interests of an unbridled financial sector that runs up profits in good years and dumps its losses on taxpayers in lean years, or reform

A Living of Words: American Women in Print Culture $213.75 This unique collection draws together twelve biographical essays that focus on American women’s entrepreneurship in print culture from the colonial period through the early twentieth century. While much recent criticism has stressed the role of women as writers, this book locates careers elsewhere in the marketplace of words – careers in printing, publishing, editing, promotion, patronage, and bookselling. Among the women discussed here are Ann Franklin, the first woman printer in colonial New England; Ida B. Wells-Burnett, an African-American publisher, journalist, and crusader who combined her business sense and reporting talents to agitate against racial injustice; and Sylvia Beach, an American expatriate in Paris whose work as a publisher, bookseller, and librarian played a central role in several eminent literary careers, including those of James Joyce and Ernest Hemingway. Arranged chronologically, the essays suggest a range of professional opportunities for women in print culture that was broader and more various than has previously been noted. The essays also show that women’s careers cannot easily be placed within the confines of either high or popular culture but are fluid and dynamic, crossing all sorts of cultural boundaries. Taken together, these pieces challenge received notions about women’s work and will, undoubtedly, encourage further research into women’s entrepreneurship in the print marketplace.
