Críticas

"The topic of open source software development is truly interesting, and very timely. There is clearly a need for a book like this on the economics of the phenomenon. This book, due to its analytical and theoretical focus, will be a great complement to the many books that have been published on the phenomenon....The editorial team is highly accomplished and well regarded in the research community. They are very well known for the contributions to the economic theory on open source software, and I have personally been referencing their work for several years...The list of authors is very impressive and the articles are really great. The book is certainly going to attract a very wide readership based on the editors very high recognition, the list of authors, and the topics of the chapters. I truly enjoyed reading the chapters."
