Abstract

The (online) gambling industry is used as an illustration of when “entrepreneurship” is at its worst, something that probably anyone could agree that there is reason to be against. It is concluded, on basis of the contributions to the book, that there are good grounds for being against the predominating entrepreneurship discourse. There also seem to be good reasons for being against at least some aspects of entrepreneurship practice, while to be arguing against all aspects of entrepreneurship in any form may need to be backed-up with the suggestion of some sort of alternative to, or at least radically improved form of entrepreneurship. The chapters of the book are, thereafter, introduced, one by one, and a few suggestions for further research are presented.
