About the Book

The raison d'etre of this collection of essays is both academic as well as pragmatic. While development seems to have acquired a purely economic connotation, the contributors to this book argue that it should actually be understood as a qualitative, directional adjunct of social change entering into the intangible and multidimensional area of the `human'. It has, therefore, a much deeper and fuller significance which can be readily explicated through the use of religion as an important parameter and component in its understanding. Development should be an endeavour to increase the `humanness' of the human. This collection of essays tries to bring about some sort of clarity to the understanding of this concept. By bringing together the various aspects that are imperative for building effective strategies for third world developement in its widest sense, it endeavours to introduce a pragmatic dimension to the concept.

`The editor should be appreciated for bringing out this excellent collection of essays.... Together they contribute a small and scintillating volume.. it is an exellent book worth perusing by one and all interested in `new′ development which is humane′ - The Asian Economic Review `Taken as a whole the collection of essays included in this book provide considerable food for thought for all engaged in the furtherance of the theory and practice of development.′ - Indian Journal of Social Science `an article by M.M. Puri on the `Political Perspectives in Development′ ...is a provocative but meticulous attempt to contribute to the development literature. His essay is well-constructed, with an effort to define terms, to refer to the relevant literature which exemplifies the crux of this arguments, and to pay attention to the title of the book which suggests that `Strategies′ are the issue,′ - Journal of Contemporary Asia Publishers `An excellent combination of eight essays by eminent persons from academics as well as the development field, this book gives an overall view of the economic, political, psychological, theological analyses of development and presents some field experiences....An extremely useful collection of essays that this book is, it is recommended for libraries and individual book buyers.′ - Productivity `This is a collection of articles on various aspects of development...some important issues have been debated in the papers; on the whole the collection is a value one.′ - Economic and Political Weekly
