Reviews
'Being asked to write a foreword to Chris Freeman's Selected Essays/i> has been for me an honour and a privilege. . . As one of the most prominent founding fathers of the economics of innovation as a distinct sub-discipline of social science and as influential maitre-a-penser within and outside evolutionary economics and economic history, he has deserved for quite a while the most prestigious recognition in economics. . .' -- From the foreword by Giovanni Dosi
