Yet books on the topic are few. An author requires courage to cover such a large set of different views, perceptions and realities about entrepreneurship, even within the limited area of the Euro-zone. Leo-Paul Dana, with a track record in researching and writing about entrepreneurship, puts together an ambitious comparison of 12 European countries: an introduction with geographic, demographic, and historical overviews, a focus on the economy, entrepreneurship and small business sector and a view on the future. It serves as a valuable overview of self-employment in the Euro-zone, as well as a guide to entrepreneurship UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=516718&site=eds-live&custid=s3260518 ER -
