Economic resources of India and Pakistan

The long gap between the publications of the first and the revised and enlarged edition of the book is compensated by an increase in new subjects and more varied informations about those dealt with in the first. Historical events happening in the meantime make it compulsory to enlarge the original title: "Economic Resources of India" by addition of "and Pakistan" to it.

As far as it had been possible, the principal economic factors that go to create wealth have been taken into account, the primary ones coming earlier followed by a fairly big chapter on the Raw Material Resources with special stress on the Minerals including all new finds in India and Pakistan. The number of published reports of the Governments of India and Pakistan on the various aspects of economic life is fairly large and more or less comprehensive but one on the raw commercial products is suffering from delay due to unavoidable reasons. It involved serious and prolonged efforts on my part to locate the sources of supply of different articles in their respective countries all over the world and the ultimate shape that this section has assumed is something like a study of World Economic Products with special reference to India and Pakistan.
