The book here includes the ICU's well-researched treatise on Cooperative Principles and their relevance to India's socio-economic goals, Cooperative Farming, Rural Credit, Cooperative Law, Community Development and Development of Handicrafts.<br/><br/>Forty years ago, the ICU also foresaw the need<br/><br/>for voluntary organizations in India uniting to<br/><br/>gether and helped to setup the Association of<br/><br/>Voluntary Agencies for Rural Development<br/><br/>(AVARD).<br/><br/>This book recalls ICU's contribution especially in the immediate post-independence period and highlight to the enhanced relevance of cooperatives today.
