From nineteenth-century whaling to the multitude of firms pursuing entrepreneurial finance today, venture capital has been driven by the pull of low-probability but substantial financial rewards. Appreciating the history of venture capital, Tom Nicholas shows, is essential to understanding the industry's future directions and possibilities, its challenges and prospects for surmounting them, and its place in America's exceptional style of capitalism.--$$cProvided by publisher. 000867207 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000867207 650_0 $$aVenture capital$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000867207 650_0 $$aEntrepreneurship$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000867207 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aNicholas, Tom (Associate professor).$$tVC.$$dCambridge, Massachusetts : Harvard University Press, 2019$$z9780674988002$$w(DLC) 2018037280$$w(OCoLC)1057239674 000867207 852__ $$bcoll 000867207 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000867207 85640 $$3eBooks on EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=2112744$$zOnline Access 000867207 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:867207$$pGLOBAL_SET 000867207 980__ $$aEBOOK 000867207 980__ $$aBIB 000867207 982__ $$aEbook 000867207 983__ $$aOnline 000867207 994__ $$a92$$bISE
