Abstract

This Handbook is a breakthrough collection. Women worldwide are now starting small businesses and entrepreneurial ventures at a faster rate than men. Though small in size, these initiatives represent a significant factor in economic growth, highlighting their importance. This collection sheds light on the motivations, personality and behaviors of women entrepreneurs, the constraints they face and conditions associated with their business success. These entrepreneurial ventures also allow some women to escape the frustrations of large corporations and compose a life consistent with their needs and values. A superb job. © Sandra L.
