Edited by Nordqvist (business administration, J繹nk繹ping International Business School, Sweden) and Zellweger (entrepreneurship and family business, U. of St Gallen, Switzerland), this book
arises out of a group research project on "Global Successful Transgenerational Entrepreneurship Practices" that sought to examine entrepreneurial capabilities and contributions of business
families worldwide, indentify entrepreneurship practices that lead to family business continuity and growth, and encourage interactions with family business leaders and academics for generating
solutions for business continuity and growth. Results of the project are presented in eight papers that discuss the qualitative research approach taken towards the topic, balancing family
resource pools for entrepreneurial performance, portfolio entrepreneurship in family businesses, entrepreneurial orientation across generations in family firms, managing growth despite
generational changes within family life stages, and dealing with increasing family complexity in family firms. Annotation 穢2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
