Abstract
Reviews the entrepreneurship and small business literature in search of a basis for gender‐specific explanations of business development. Contends that small business development needs to be interpreted without resort to frameworks that exclude one gender or the other, and identifies a need for more research on how women act as owners and managers in small businesses.
