"Entrepreneurship and Organised Crime" provides a fresh and realistic insight into the problem of organised crime activity and the role of entrepreneurs in illegal business. Petter Gottschalk takes a close look at how some entrepreneurs choose to develop criminal business enterprises. Stage models for criminal entrepreneurs are presented, and entrepreneurial leadership and management are discussed. This book illustrates how so many issues for entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship are similar in legal and illegal business. At the same time, all the cases in the book show how different many of the individual criminal entrepreneurs are. In sum, this book provides a pragmatic view of another kind of entrepreneurship not frequently discussed in a neutral way. This book will be warmly welcomed by scholars and researchers looking for a different perspective of entrepreneurship or interested in criminology. This will also be a good reference tool for students at police academies.

“企业家精神与有组织犯罪”为有组织犯罪活动的问题以及企业家在非法商业中的作用提供了一个全新而现实的视角。Petter Gottschalk仔细观察了一些企业家如何选择发展犯罪商业企业。提出了犯罪企业家的阶段模型，并讨论了企业家的领导和管理。这本书说明了在合法和非法商业中，企业家和企业家的许多问题是如何相似的。同时，书中的所有案例都显示了许多个体犯罪企业家的不同之处。总之，这本书提供了另一种企业家精神的务实观点，这种企业家精神不常以中立的方式讨论。这本书将受到寻求不同创业视角或对犯罪学感兴趣的学者和研究人员的热烈欢迎。这也是警察学院学生的一个很好的参考工具。
