This paper concentrates on analysing the first chapter of the Penrose?s book ? ?the theory of the growth of the firm?. The paper is divided in to three different parts. The first part is devoted to the generally outline and summarise the theory presented by Penrose addressing important concepts used within the model. The second part relies on three specific concepts and analyses them and establishes the connection between those concepts and the rest of the model. Finally, the methodological approach used by Penrose to theorise is analytically discussed.
