OverviewThe Theoretical World of Entrepreneurship contains the first and most comprehensive examination of more than 250 theories applicable to the study of entrepreneurship. It includes a theoretical examination of current social and economic controversies that impact entrepreneurs. Following in Weber's tradition, it also compares the doctrines of 16 Christian denominations and nine world religions which offer different conceptual windows for understanding entrepreneurs. The author ties the theoretical world of entrepreneurship together by pursuing three primary objectives. The first objective is to focus intently on the need to specify the assumptions of the theories that are used to address research questions. The second is to provide a common vision of diverse perspectives. The third is to help scholars who are seeking alternatives to the conventional wisdom. This comprehensive resource is ideal for doctoral students seeking to grasp the entire theoretical domain of the field of entrepreneurship. It also serves as a reference for professors who want to position the work that they know best within the frame of the entire theoretical world of entrepreneurship. The book is accessible enough to engage those who do not already possess an academic background. Full Product DetailsAuthor: James O.
