Summary, etc. This book is a down to earth yet scientific enquiry in rural development. It forcefully establishes that as a developing country, India has abundance of resources in the shape of land and manpower, but owing to the lack of finances, co-operatives seem to provide the best alternative for rural development and eradicating poverty. In some parts of the country, specially in Gujarat, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu the co-operative movement has taken appreciable momentum and has diversified its activities.<br/>The present study is an attempt to find out the effectiveness of the co operative programmes in the rural areas of the country. It assesses the impact of co-operatives in the economic, social and political development of rural people.<br/>The basic assumption behind this study has been that rural development means something more than mere economic progress for it has to do more with rural people than with things and co-operative can usher such holistic development. Three specific co-operatives have been selected for this study. They include a service (milk) co-operative at Chandur, a marketing co-operative of farm products at Ramtek and a handicraft co-operative in Amravati, all in the heart of rural Maharashtra.<br/>The focus throughout the study was on how the co-operative helps to achieve the growth of the rural people in their own environment and how it enables them to acquire greater awareness and reflection which lead towards constructive action. The study establishes that together with the government officials, rural experts the people themselves have a vital part to play in the composite task of rural development.
