EUROPEAN INDUSTRIES

Structure, Conduct and Performance

Edited by Peter Johnson, former Professor of Business Economics, Barclays Centre for Entrepreneurship, University of Durham Business School, UK

This important book presents an authoritative, up-to-date examination of a number of major industries in Europe. It offers valuable insights into the nature of industrial activity in Europe, as well as providing comprehensive introductions to a series of key industries, such as defence, construction, tourism and biotechnology.

‘This book is to be recommended as a valuable reference source; the self-contained chapters provide well-written and informative introductions to the industries covered and the authors also give helpful guidance to further reading.’
– Eleanor J. Morgan, The Economic Journal

‘. . . this book is a timely follow-up to Peter Johnson’s earlier studies on the structure of industries in the UK.’
– Richard Stead, Service Industries Journal
