4.0 out of 5 stars Different Approach to Clusters' Performance and Growth, August 1, 2001
By 
ATH Kuah (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dynamics of Industrial Clustering: International Comparisons in Computing and Biotechnology (Hardcover)
This book takes a different perspective towards the current hot topic of clusters, the concept of agglomeration of firms interconnected by linkage that lead to greater competitive advantage, a current and hot topic raised by academics like Michael Porter.

But this collection of work focuses on using econometrics in investigating the cross sectorial effects and growth dynamics of firms within established hi-tech clusters such as computer and biotechnology industries in the US and UK.

An interesting but serious reading for the intellects, with a appreciation on industrial economics and econometrics. But for the faint hearted, it provides an overview of cluster theories, the macro economic performance of clusters and how policies could support clusters.

Happy reading!
