This e-book contains four papers that have developed from an initial airing at a ‘Regeneration Management’ conference held at the University of Liverpool in June 2004. This conference brought together a number of practitioners and academics working in the field of regeneration, providing a mix of perspectives on what regeneration is, and why it is important. It also contains two extra papers on the subject of 'Employee stock option plan and employee attitudes' and 'Advancing financial inclusion through community participation'.
