The main focus of this book is on the impact of economic growth on the rural poor, but the author works within the broader framework of socio-political and techno-economic factors. Three categories of regions have been selected to represent some of the most typical situations found in India: advanced areas, poor but potentially rich areas and areas that face severe physical constraints. The areas concerned have been repeatedly surveyed over a period of years, enabling the author to provide an informative, interesting and authentic account of what is happening over time at grass roots level. aFood aPoverty aETIENNE (Gilbert)
