A highly significant piece of work, this handy and versatile book delves into regional patterns of growth,
and the implications of such growth on socio-economic development. I strongly recommend this book.

A stellar contribution … the implications for both private and public sector in terms of sectoral planning, fiscal incentive design and employment generation are far-reaching. -- Dr. Meenakshi Gopinath,
Chairperson – Centre for Policy Research

This is a competent analysis at the micro-level, on a subject which is usually viewed at the macro level.
Hence its use for future policy-making is great, a worthy read.
