Book Synopsis Entrepreneurship, Management, and the Structure of Payoffs by : William J. Baumol
Book excerpt: Departing from the orthodox view that imitation retards technical progress by reducing the reward to innovation, Baumol asserts that entrepreneurs can spread and speed the adoption of new technology and ideas throughout a market. By persistently looking to depart from standard practices, entrepreneurs fuel change and help keep an economy from falling into a rut. Often these changes can improve efficiency, increase production and spur growth.
