Abstract: AbstractThis chapter provides an overview of this book on innovation. The book has two parts. The first part contains chapters that provide reviews of the academic research on innovation. The academic research reviewed includes the research in organizational behavior, operations, marketing, economics and finance. The second part contains chapters that provide a variety of perspectives on innovation for managers that are practically useful and implementable. The authors of the chapters are faculty at the Olin Business School at Washington University in St. Louis. The book is thus unusual in that it brings together a synthesis of academic research on innovation with a variety of cross-functional and very practical managerial perspectives on innovation.
