Synopsis:
Human development is a relative concept and it needs to be understood from an interdisciplinary perspective. It includes widening of choices, expansion of freedom, and fulfillment of human rights. The human development index (HDI) in the United Nation's Development Programme's Human Development Report (HDR) considers literacy rate, life expectancy from birth, along with the Gross Domestic Product per head for this purpose. It is important to understand an appropriate methodology for measuring human development and its linkage with economic development. This book addresses specific problems and issues pertaining to human development in India. The main themes which the book covers include theoretical issues, measurements, determinants, and various dimensions and strategies for sustainable human development.
