The book explains how it has become imperative to enlarge our vision from 'poverty alleviation' to 'quality of life' as India has liberalised its economy, is having sound economic growth, and seems to be proceeding towards curtailing population growth. Quality of life creates an environment where individuals have an opportunity to develop fully to their intellectual, mental, physical and financial capa city. After examining the Indian environment, it lists thirteen indicators food, health care, clothing, housing and supporting construction activities, transport, communication, women empowerment, population stabilisation, water for drinking, irrigation and industry, energy, ecology, regional and global interdependence - as determi nants of the quality of life and welcomes debate and discussion on the soundness of the indicators, process of governance and the role of the government so that a concerted action plan for the quality of life programme can be launched.
