The authors include Raj Kumar Sen, Kartick C. Roy, Suhas Ch. Chakrabartty, Veena Devasthali, Dhirendra Nath Konar, D.D. Guru, N. Manonmoney, Shri Prakash, Sumitra Chowdhury, P.L. Sablok, K.P. Nath, Amar S. Yumnam, K. Nageswara Rao, Alak Ghosh, S.R. Harrison and P.C. Sharma. The present Volume, while highlighting the major issues in sustaining growth and development in low income economies with special reference to India, has focused on different aspects of the environmental problem and its links with the sustainability issue of development in such countries. These include not only the question of population growth, dwindling forest, drought-prone village and island economy, new areas like general information system and common property rights are also discussed. Environmental implications of development are also presented in an input-output framework and in the context of SAARC countries.
