Technological capability is a major factor in self-reliance. Though India has large S&T manpower and expertise, self-reliance is yet to be achieved. Now research and technology are becoming global. In the context of current economic liberalization and GATT compulsions, S&T and R&D in India are not only topical but also of utmost concern to our country. The present need is to have a fresh and critical look at our strategy on R&D and technology in industry in view of the emerging challenges. The present volume brings together ideas and views on various facets that call for development of proper climate, attitude and culture for more intensive interactions, to inculcate high technology in all areas of endeavour. The volume is a must for research scientists, technologists, industrialists, technocrats, economists, financiers, policy makers and to those who are involved in meeting the new challenges facing the nation.
