      abstract = {After more than fifty years of systematic research on  multinational enterprises (MNEs) what is apparent is that  there is, as yet, no unified or dominant theory of the MNE.  The objective of this book is to bring into focus one  particular dimension of MNE behaviour and activity that has  been relatively under-researched – namely the geography  of the multinational enterprise – as understood through  the lens of innovation and technological change. The  authors clearly demonstrate that geography is becoming  increasingly important for MNEs and, in turn, MNEs are  becoming progressively more important for economic  geography. The pivot on which this vital relationship turns  is the creation, diffusion and management of new knowledge.   This unique book will prove a fascinating read for  academics, students and researchers across a broad range of  areas including geography, economic geography, regional  science, international business and management, innovation  studies, economic development. Professionals such as  corporate managers and policymakers in these fields would  also find this book to be of great interest.},
