502			_aEssays in memory of Malcolm Adiseshiah.
520			_aA renowned development economist and educationist, Malcom Adiseshiah defined the aspirations and achievements of a country in the making-a modern, progressive India within a new international order. The founder of MIDS Chennai, Professor Adiseshiah was an accomplished educationist whose work is a retelling of India's progress vis-à-vis its education policies. His contribution in redirecting UNESCO funds to the education sector, and thus realizing the effectiveness of education in bringing socio-economic development in developing countries, is monumental. This book is presented as a commemorative volume in honour of Professor Adiseshiah. The essays included in the volume were presented either on the annual Founder's Day of MIDS or as Malcolm Adiseshiah Memorial Lecture, which is organized every year at MIDS. What makes the book an essential read is the fact that while these essay have been written by eminent social scientists with varying disciplinary backgrounds, they have a common unifying theme of addressing the issue of development in India, which Professor Adiseshiah actively pursued in his lifetime.
