Understanding The Small Business Sector

Introduction

Originally published in 1994, this text analyses the key issues that influence the growth and development of small businesses. Looking at the concept in which they operate, the book outlines the factors that are dominant in the sector and explores the effects it has on the economy.

Key Questions

Is the creation of small businesses the answer to unemployment? Has the lowering of interest rates or taxation encouraged the self-employed to work harder? Have banks given small business a raw deal?

Discussion Topics

These are just some of the questions discussed as David Storey explains the issues of employment, finance, policy, and the factors dictating failure or success.
