This book begins with a theoretical examination of regional innovation
systems, agglomeration economics and knowledge spillovers, before
going on to examine the same concepts within an empirical framework.
Special emphasis is given to the importance of proximity in the formation
of regional innovation systems. It concludes by considering innovation and
human capital as determinants of regional economic growth.
