length, offering a perfect half day's stroll for families, casual
walkers and all who want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of
Britain's outstanding country landscapes. A range of enhancements
include a wider geographical spread. This title covers one of the

Despite being the third largest economy in Southeast Asia,
Malaysian entrepreneurial activity is under-reported in the
scholarly literature. This book extends such research by examining
the impact of entrepreneurship on its economy and evaluating the
existing systemic problems. The Malaysian economy has benefited
from the density of knowledge-based businesses and utilization of
the latest technologies in the manufacturing and digital economies.
However, Malaysia faces ongoing challenges, namely concentration of
wealth in the city, high regional unemployment and workplace gender
inequality. In regional areas, there is an over-reliance on
agriculture and necessity based entrepreneurship. Consequently,
entrepreneurial activity has been encouraged with the creation of
eco-systems, seed corn funding and provision of entrepreneurship
education to offer entrepreneurial career choices. Providing
recommendations and best practice for driving entrepreneurship and
entrepreneurial behaviours, this contributed volume presents the
first opportunity to reflect on both the success stories and
systemic problems related to effective entrepreneurial behaviour in
a South East Asian context.
This is the long-awaited brand new edition of what was the first
guidebook to this classic walk since the Wainwright original. The
Coast to Coast Walk has enjoyed a greater surge in popularity since
recent TV exposure, and remains Britain's favourite long-distance
walk. Savour 192 glorious miles from St Bees on the Cumbrian Coast
to Robin Hood's Bay on the Yorkshire Coast, passing through the
unparalleled grandeur of three National Parks. The Lake District,
Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors provide an endless array of
attractions, and together create what can be the walk of a
lifetime. After a re-survey of the entire route in Spring 2010, a
wealth of changes and improvements to an already well-used guide
sees the Hannon version return to the top of the pile. Re-drawn
colour maps make the book even easier to use in the field, while a
stunning collection of more than 100 full colour photographs depict
the countless memorable features and landscapes along the way. The
book has been extended by 16 further pages to improve the layout
and content. As always, concise route descriptions are complemented
by a veritable wealth of background information, along with an
extensive introductory section dealing with planning the walk,
including useful addresses, contacts and essential services; also
an extremely useful log section.
