This book is a significant contribution to the literature on comparative entrepreneurship. Studies in this area are few and far between. Still fewer are works dealing with historical experiences of different societies in the realm of entrepreneurship. A cross-national analysis with focus on a long time horizon should most likely provide a deeper understanding of the phenomenon. This is what this book does. Another and the principal purpose of this work is to comprehend the essential dynamics of Indian Business behavior.
