Sommario/riassunto

As founding Director of the Oxford Institute of Retail Management and Emeritus Professor of Templeton College, Oxford, Ross Davies (1940-2005) was one of the first entrepreneurial academics. This e-book contains articles written by researchers and practitioners to mark his very special contribution to retailing. Three papers address retail regeneration and partnership issues, and two examine complementary aspects of retail development.
