The Geography of Small Firm Innovation (International Studies in Entrepreneurship)

Book Description

The Geography of Small Firm Innovation offers a unique look at the importance of geographic proximity to the innovative activity of high-tech small firms. The book explores the concentration of innovation across metropolitan areas in the United States during the 1990s, by introducing a novel measure of small-firm innovation based on the U.S. Small Business Innovation Research Program, the largest federal R and D program for small business. The empirical evidence indicates the differing effects of technological infrastructure on the likelihood of innovation occurring in a metropolitan area, which has implications for public policy.

Book Description

This is the first book to provide objective methods for establishing that a child has been brainwashed by one parent against another. It is based on a ten-year study of 700 cases in the authors' counseling and evaluative work with children of divorced couples.

Children Held Hostage.......2006-10-07

Children Held Hostage is the very best book for help in understanding and identifying PARENTAL ALIENATION. It should be in the hands of every Lawyer, Guardian ad Litem, Psychologist and any one working with children. It, also, is very beneficial for parents to read, who are suffering from this disorder. Parental Alienation is cruel and breaks the bond-of-love between a parent and child. Before allowing a Guardian ad Litem or others to intervene, he/she should read this book. I cannot praise it enough.

Hope for the hopeless.......2004-07-22

This is the most in depth book on the market for someone in a hostile custody battle involving parental alienation syndrome. The authors have addressed significant issues in great detail. They have provided useful tools to combat the issues at hand and given hope to those embroiled in the battle.

data filled book.......2004-03-05

One of the best studies of the damage of alienating parental behaviour in divorce does to children. This was a pre-cursor to Gardner's terminology of Parental Alienation Syndrome, but all that here discusses is here. This book will help many divorced
parents monitor their own behaviour, as well as help their children, with the knowledge of how the children are being impacted. Expensive, but very informative.

An eye-opening, surprising, frightening divorce possibility........1999-02-04

I was given this book to read after 3 months of weekly counseling with my husband. It was clear to our counselor that my stepdaughter was being programmed and brainwashed for the past 14 years by her mother and step-father of 14 years. (I've been in her life for the past 8 years).

What I read was very disturbing in that it hit home in so many places. The process and definitions were clear and easily identifiable.

The book helped me understand what's been going on and how it happened. In our case the history has been many many years and the programmers'/ brainwashers' support group includes the mother, stepfather, half and step-siblings and grand- parents (among others).

Tired and outdated.......2003-04-01

It may have been useful once, but this book -- dated 1996 and 1997 -- is terribly out of date. The world of job-hunting has passed this author by. There's lots of generic info about starting a home-based business, but you'll get killed in the real world if you try to pass yourself off as a job-search expert based upon what's in this tired old tome. Can't imagine why it's still in print.

A Must Have in Your Business Library.......2002-06-03

Being new to the business, I was pleasantly suprised at the wealth of information shared. This book is a staple item for those aspiring resume writers. This book reads like an encyclopedia and covers every aspect of the business from start to finish. It is by far, the best investment I could have made!

Very thorough in an easy to understand format!.......1998-07-09

I have re-checked this book out several times at the library and have learned a tremendous amount on starting my home business. I give Jan 100 thumbs up! She will be a great mentor in helping me reach my goal to run an office from my home. I only wish I had known about this book a few years ago. As soon as I can afford to purchase it, I will. I also want to subscribe to her newsletter. Great job, Jan!

the perfect book if you want to sleep.......2001-11-28

I've never read such a boring book! It takes ages before you start understanding what this guy is actually saying. After reading a few pages you'll be fast asleep... At least I did.

Difficult but..........2000-01-18

This book is seasoned economists only... It IS badly written, the theory is unnecessarily complicated, but then again it was certainly not intended to be an elegant political essay. If you want to know about the scientific depths of economic integration between nations, this is the right reading for you. But be prepared to take a lot of aspirin.

Boring, uninteresting book.......1999-06-17

This is a total contrast to american books. It is without colors, pictures. You can hardly find a graph in it. Besides this, that the book is not interesting to look at and it is also written in a totaly ununderstandable way. It wants to be sophisticated, but it is a crap! I would not recomend this book to anyone who does not really need it.

Book Description

The dawn of the 21st Century has witnessed fundamental changes in international relations affecting major, medium and small powers, as well as regional groupings in Asia, Europe and North America. Since the end of the Cold War some twelve years ago, regionalism has evidently emerged as an alternative to power configurations shaped earlier by bipolarity. Europe, in particular the European Union, began to re-examine its historical and cultural ties to Asia-Pacific balance of power. The United States remains the primary actor energizing trans-Atlantic as well as trans-Pacific interactions, especially after the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks against America, while the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), for its part, is now engaged in the process of consolidating Asean-10.

This book therefore examines the political, cultural, social, economic, and strategic dimensions of EU-US-Asean interaction in the new millennium. The fifteen essays focus on the challenges and prospects for cooperative engagement by all three actors as they attempt to shape their regional strategic environments to address both traditional and non-traditional security issues in the 21st Century. While there is greater need for sensitivity to the individual interests and challenges faced by each actor, there is also a consensus that long term solutions to regional and global stability and prosperity are better founded on strategies based on comprehensive security. It concludes on the note that the enhancement of trilateral interactions in a transforming strategic context requires bold new approaches that enable cooperative engagement to achieve common security at the national, regional and global levels.
