Review Quotes
Industrial and Labor Relations Review
"The volume editors and coauthors demonstrate the necessity of taking heterogeneity into account in order to understand entrepreneurship, and they showcase a wide range of relevant data, including data from national statistical agencies, administrative data sources, private sources, and linked multi-source data. . . . Collectively, the chapters in the book offer a deeper look at entrepreneurship as well as inspiration for future researchers grappling with the trade-offs of measurement."
