‘Context in entrepreneurship education relates to understanding entrepreneurship in different cultures and environments but also to addressing the contextual difference of its sub-disciplines. This book covers both, which makes it a very relevant and up-to-date discussion on how to present the context through which research findings are interpreted.’
