Book Synopsis India by : Jean Drèze
Book excerpt: Two of the worlds' most prominent development economists argue that public involvement is required in the provision of basic health care, education, and social security if economic and social advances are to be made in India. This analysis of the endemic deprivation in India is based on a broad view of economic development, focusing on human well-being and 'social opportunity' rather than on the standard indicators of economic growth. India's economic successes and failures are evaluated in the light of other countries development experiences.
