Summary: Poverty and income distribution in India, first published in 1974, brought together the global who’s who of poverty research of that time. But over the years, out of print, this important book had essentially vanished from library collections around the world. With four new essays by the present editors and one by the economics Nobel laureate Amartya Sen, which reflect on the shifts in Perspective that have taken place in the decades gone by, this updated volume is an essential reference. ‘This book achieves a dual role; it recognises... Giants of the past, and through editing and the inclusion of new papers, provides a bridge to and a handbook for the future.’ Angus de at on, winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics ‘important to read this treasure trove.’ Arvind Subramanian.
