The evolutionary tent has nowadays become so wide that many scholars who deem to be under it do not even know of each other. This book is an ambitious attempt to map the multiple facets of the tent. In its tour-de-force it offers an appreciation of the richness of the emerging evolutionary paradigm as well as its gaps, fuzzy boundaries and challenges ahead. -- Giovanni Dosi, Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa, Italy This Handbook is a very welcome overview of the state of the art in evolutionary economics and the economics of innovation. Due to the broad coverage of topics, methods and theories, both experienced and entry-level researchers will find this volume very useful as a reference work, or a source of ideas. -- Bart Verspagen, UNU-Merit, Maastricht, the Netherlands This Handbook is an excellent and much-needed resource for those researchers keen to work within the field of evolutionary economics. It showcases the rich variety of methodological approaches of studies inspired by the ideas from evolutionary economics, featuring chapters by an impressive range of scholars. The chapters not only take stock of the many achievements so far, but also look ahead by offering ideas for even more exciting applications. -- Carolina Castaldi, Utrecht University, the Netherlands
