| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book argues that 'communities of practice', communities and networks of joint enterprise, are the prime site where knowledge and innovation are generated. It sees the everyday interaction that takes place in different working and professional contexts as producing this creativity, learning, and knowing through action. Leading international scholars examine the concept and our understanding of the relationship between situated practice and economic creativity."--Jacket.
