‘. . . this book aims at a double objective: contributing to the specific issues dealt with in the chapters, and proposing an agenda for the development of an evolutionary economics methodology, which the chapters support but as examples and as tests. On both these respects the book can be considered a success. The individual contributions constitute a good sample of the very frontier of their respective fields.’
– JASSS Review of Applied Evolutionary Economics

The expert contributors to this book examine recent developments in empirical methods and applied simulation in evolutionary economics. Using examples of innovation and technology in industry, it is the first book to address the following questions in a systematic manner:

• Can evolutionary economics use the same empirical methods as other research traditions in economics?
• Is there a need for empirical methods appropriate to the subject matter chosen?
• What is the relationship between appreciative theorising, case studies and more structured empirical methods?
• What is the relationship of modelling and simulation to empirical analysis?
