Abstract
'If I had been asked to suggest the currently most-needed editorial endeavor for advancing family business studies, I would have answered with no hesitation: an up-to-date annotated bibliography. The field's growth over the past 15 years has been so intense, that even experts who devote most of their research efforts to family business - not to mention younger scholars approaching the field - will significantly benefit from De Massis, Sharma, Chua, and Chrisman's indispensable work.' - Carlo Salvato, Bocconi University, Italy and Associate Editor, Family Business Review. © Alfredo De Massis, Pramodita Sharma, Jess H.
