Social Aspects Of Urban Development : A Case Study Of The Pattern Of Urban Development In The Developing Countries. - Bombay Popular Prakashan. 1986 - 392 p.

Socio-economic and physical aspects of the process of development, which are manifested by the urbanisation pattern, are subjects of interest to social scientists and policy makers. Various theories on urbanisation and the impact of development policies on it are propounded to explain the process of urbanisation.

In this book H. D. Kopardekar examines the process of urban growth and the development trends in India and other developing
countries, within the fundamental framework of the society and the path and pattern of developmental policies followed by the rulers. With this hypothesis he discusses in detail social, economic, environmental, administrative, political and other dimensions of urban growth trends, supported with illustrations. The author's own rich experience in the studies of cities and the urban regions, planning and implementation efforts and his involvement with research and training activities add weight to his arguments and interpretations. This highly researched penetrative and analytical work will be useful to the research scholars, social scientists, urban planners ,.. and administrators.
