Readership: Scholars and students of economics and business studies.
"The book is set apart from other books on India by its attempt to bring empirical rigour to bear on questions of policy such as the relationship between investment and growth and the determinants of saving and investment in India. While all the chapters are competently written, I especially liked the chapter on the determinants of investment . Even though this book would have been very readable for a general audience even without the empirics, including the empirics will have special appeal for undergraduate students, and even some graduate students looking to work with developing country data ... extremely enjoyable." - Naveed H.
