The book provides a wide coverage of several relevant issues which will require more attention of policy makers, administrators, technocrats, practioners, urban managers and the academics. The contributions to this book unanimously point at the need to strengthen the urban agenda, and to undertake concerted efforts towards implementation of such an agenda with a view to stablising and balancing the urban development process, and overcoming India's urban crisis through positive interventions. The collection of thoughts and urban experiences is beyond a mere attempt of understanding of the urban development initiatives. India's urban crisis is going to exist for quite some time. If urban India is to live up to the expectations and basic needs of a liberalised economy, there is no real option but to rise to the challenge of innovation with an entrepreneurial commitment.
