{"product_id":"the-entrepreneur-classic-texts-9780804762830","title":"The Entrepreneur: Classic Texts","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoseph Schumpeter is seen as the foremost theoretician of entrepreneurship. In addition, Schumpeter, whose creative destruction is as famous as Milton Friedman's there is no free lunch, is increasingly recognized as a major economist, often given the same stature as John Maynard Keynes. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSchumpeter spent the last twenty years of his life as a Professor of Economics at Harvard University. English-speaking readers may be familiar with some of his works, especially \u003ci\u003eThe Theory of Economic Development\u003c\/i\u003e and the classic \u003ci\u003eCapitalism, Socialism, and Democracy\u003c\/i\u003e. However, very few of Schumpeter's key texts on the entrepreneur and entrepreneurship have been available in English. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis anthology contains several newly translated texts and puts together, for the very first time, all of Schumpeter's writings on the entrepreneur and entrepreneurship. English-speaking readers will now be able to access the entire palette of Schumpeter's work and to follow the evolution of his ideas over time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume begins with an introduction that points readers to the most important aspects of the works presented. The introduction also attempts to go beyond Schumpeter's ideas, drawing on his basic intuitions of entrepreneurship to share a couple of key notions: that entrepreneurship consists of a new combination of already existing elements in the economy and that the entrepreneur has to break through resistance to the new idea, in him or herself as well as in others. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thorbjorn Knudsen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford Business Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804762830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2011 pg. 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarkus Becker is Professor of Strategic Organization Design at the University of Southern Denmark.
