This book explores these concepts and analyzes what is being done to promote them and with what effect. It describes and analyzes not only concepts, ideas and trends, but also policies and their delivery systems. The book should serve as a guide to anyone wishing to get to grips with the complexities of the nature, purpose and systems for the support of enterprise, entrepreneurship and small business today.
