  The study of the Neolithic transition constitutes a major theme in prehistoric research. The process of economic change, from foraging to farming, involved one of the main transformations in human behavior patterns. This volume focuses on investigating the neolithization process at the periphery of one of the main routes in the expansion of the Neolithic in Europe: the Western Mediterranean region. Recent advances in radiocarbon dating, mathematical and computational models, archaeometric analysis and biomolecular techniques, together with new archaeological discoveries, provide novel insights into this topic.
  
  This volume is organized into five sections:
  
  ·         new discoveries and new ideas about the Mediterranean Neolithic
  
  ·         reconstructing times and modeling processes
  
  ·         landscape interaction: farming and herding·         dietary subsistence of early farming communities
  
  ·         human dispersal mechanisms and cultural transmission
  
  This volume will also provide new empirical data to help readers assess different theoretical frameworks and narratives which underlie the models proposed to explain the expansion of farming from the Middle East into Europe. Lire la suite Fermer

  This book presents the current state-of-the-art in all major and upcoming areas of entrepreneurship research. Thousands of scholars around the world are currently working to broaden our understanding of the entrepreneurial phenomenon. The disciplines involved are numerous, as are the topics of interest, with substantial efforts to enhance the existing knowledge. This book is specifically designed to facilitate high-level, high-intensity discussions and fruitful exchanges between scholars involved in entrepreneurship research. The articles address a variety of topics ranging from self-employment, technology, growth patterns and job creation, and success and failure rates, to historical, conceptual and comparative international approaches."This book takes entrepreneurship beyond the
  individual, size of the venture, entrepreneurial personality, and looks at
  entrepreneurship as a long term complex process that is heterogeneous, content
  dependent with an emphasis on innovationand growth. A must read for
  individuals interested in entrepreneurship, today and in the future, on a
  domestic and global basis." - Robert D. Hisrich,

  most important concept of the modern socio-economic disciplines. This book
  makes an invaluable contribution in this fascinating area: it presents a
  multifaceted socio-economic examination of the impact of entrepreneurship for
  growth." - Roy Thurik,
