Understanding the practice of entrepreneurship is critical because it provides insights into the nuances of entrepreneurs’ activities, relationships and communications. This book is a wonderful resource for those interested in the “nitty-gritty” of entrepreneurial phenomena.’</i>

<i>‘This Research Handbook will be an essential resource for scholars aiming to use practice theory to take a fresh look at entrepreneurship phenomena and generate novel theorizing. The Parts lay out the foundation and theoretical background to this new approach to entrepreneurship, and then provide methodological approaches for conducting research and illustrate the type of phenomena that can be illuminated by a practice approach. A really interesting and thought-provoking Handbook that will take both entrepreneurship and practice theorizing forward.’</i>

This comprehensive Research Handbook pushes boundaries in the scholarship concerning what entrepreneurship is and what it can become. It is split into four Parts covering new foundations, new theoretical advances, new methodological advances and new empirical advances. Together, with an insightful Foreword by William B. Gartner, chapters examine the nature and consequences of entrepreneurship, its practices and relations, as well as novel research methods for conducting empirical EaP research. Collectively, this Research Handbook marks a bright future for EaP research.
This insightful Research Handbook will provide an excellent up-to-date introduction to EaP research for entrepreneurship, management and organization scholars as well as scholars new to theories of this practice. Practitioners and researchers will also benefit from the wider perspective that this book provides in a novel, exciting and powerful way to fully understand entrepreneurship.
