Summary: The book offers a rich set of contributions exploring the connections between evolutionary economics, complex system theory, and empirical research. It focuses on how the economy viewed as a system differs in important ways from natural contexts. Knowledge and information, the population approach, and the interdependence between selection and development through the creation and destruction of variety are the three distinguishing and interrelated traits of evolutionary economics. This book helps clarify difficult issues although it is necessarily selective, exploratory and illustrative. It is an important contribution to building a repertoire of applied case studies of evolutionary economics and complex systems.
