It is structured and written both for students who have had some basic training in economics and for those with little or no formal economics background. For the latter group, essential principles and concepts of economics that appear to be of particular relevance for analyzing and reach ing policy conclusions about specific development problems are explained at appropriate points throughout the text. Thus the book should be of special value in undergraduate development courses that attract students from a variety of disciplines. Yet the material is also sufficiently broad in scope and rigorous in coverage to satisfy most undergraduate and some graduate economics requirements in the field of development. In organization and orientation, this book is unique among development texts. Furthermore, it incorporates a number of important pedagogical innovations that also make it a significant improvement over other books in the field. Among these innovations, the following are perhaps the most significant.
