The analyses are based on and informed by the experiences and family dynamics of the developed West, particularly the United States. But the recommendations are not culture specific. Thus, the book can provide useful insight to the owners and managers of family businesses in the developing countries as well. --Dwijendra Tripathi, The Journal of Entrepreneurship\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents:  Preface  Introduction and Overview    1.
