Reviews

'Ray Oakey draws on economic, political, technological and behavioural perspectives to present a rich, theoretically and empirically-grounded analysis of high-technology sectors past and present. Arguing for the continued economic policy focus on high-technology small firms, this thought-provoking work is a 'must read' for academics, policy-makers, practitioners and honours/postgraduate students.' Sarah Cooper, University of Edinburgh Business School, UK 'Ray Oakey provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of high technology small firm formation and growth. Full of historical gems, this book provides a candid reflection on some of the attempts made by policy-makers to artificially replicate HTSF growth -- including repeated attempts by European planners to recreate Silicon Valley.' Paul Trott, University of Portsmouth, UK and Technical University of Delft, the Netherlands
