Cultural Creation and Social Innovation as the Basis for Building a Cohesive City Juan-Luis Klein and Diane-Gabrielle Tremblay IndexReviews'The editors have assembled a superb array of experts on various aspects of innovation and its geographical sources, processes and manifestations. This volume provides state-of-the-art overviews of key topics, probing of ongoing debates, and fresh empirical perspectives on unresolved dilemmas in innovation studies. The Handbook should be an essential reference for scholars and policymakers alike as they struggle to understand the many geographies of innovation.' -- Edward J. Malecki, The Ohio State University, US 'The authors present a much needed update to prior handbooks on the geography of innovation. They have been able to put together a remarkable and consistent collection of chapters by well-known authors that will be of relevance not only for geographers, but also for scholars in economics, innovation studies and related fields interested in the spatial aspects of innovation. It combines well-established topics on innovation systems with new insights, for instance, into the culture of innovation, discusses center vs. periphery innovation, and orients itself along a set of perceived confusions in the field - as identified in the introduction. I believe this book will find a broad readership among researchers, students and politicians interested in the spatiality of innovation.' -- Harald Bathelt, University of Toronto, Canada 'The editors have assembled a superb array of experts on various aspects of innovation and its geographical sources, processes and manifestations.
