Summary: The book presents a critical socio-economic review of the fundamental concern regarding India's rural growth and poverty. It also discusses the major thrusts and equity impact of important public policies relating to the agriculture-rural sector with special focus on institutional reforms. The important themes stressed in the volume must be addressed if one is committed to a policy of agricultural development and rural transformation with social justice. Written in simple language, the book should be of considerable interest not merely to economists and social scientists, but to anyone concerned with agriculture and rural transition in India in particular and the developing world in general. It may also be of great value as a primer for the many references it makes to other studies and sources for further information.
