The second of two volumes, this book examines influential contributions to the series Advances in Entrepreneurship, Firm Emergence and Growth over the past 25 years. It presents the three most-cited chapters in the history of the series: "The Distinctive Domain of Entrepreneurship Research" by Sankaran Venkataraman, on the exclusive domain of entrepreneurship research and the need for focus; "From Traits to Rates: An Ecological Perspective on Organizational Foundings" by Howard Aldrich and Gabrielle Wiedenmayer, on the application of organizational ecology to entrepreneurship; and "Toward a Theory of Entrepreneurial Competency" by Barbara Bird, on entrepreneurial competency. Also included are reflections from the authors on their work and how they see it today, in addition to three new chapters related to the research by Venkataraman and Bird.
