สรุปความของสำนักพิมพ์
This gold mine of a book provides a rare dynamic view of development as fundamental change in peoples lives: it provides the film, not just a snapshot or two. It is an outstanding contribution. * Samuel Bowles, Santa Fe Institu te and CORE * The three Palanpur volumes are a monument to serious social science; social science at its best. I don't know of anything like them. * Robert Solow, Emeritus Professor of Economics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Laureate of the Nobel Prize in Economics 1987 * How Lives Change is the outcome of the latest in a unique, and continuing, series of studies of the lives and livelihoods for all the households in one village in the largest state of India over seven decades. It is a landmark in the interface of development economics and economic anthropology, focusing on drivers of economic and social transformation, and on interaction of markets, institutions and opportunities, and deriving lessons for development theoryand policy. There is much to learn from this in-depth study. * Pranab Bardhan, University of California at Berkeley * For development economists, this fascinating book about 60 years of development in a poor Indian village reads like a saga, yet a saga that tells not only about the lives of people and how they changed throughout three generations in parallel with the transformation of India, but also about the relevance of development theory in understanding the causes and the features of change. An absolute "must-read" book. * Francois Bourguignon, emeritus professor Paris School of Economics, Former Chief Economist of the World Bank * How Lives Change is a remarkable book which brings together two qualities seldom seen concurrently-empathy for the subject, in this case the inhabitants of Palanpur, usually found in anthropological writings, and the rigor of statistics and theory, associated with economics. This new book provides a keen, bird'seye view of research in rural India, with scholarship and a lightness of touch rare in economics. What makes this latest book especially valuable isthe authors' use of Palanpur as a testing ground of what has happened all over India. The experience of Palanpur is used by the authors to offer useful tips to India-the importance of education, human capital and better vocational training, and the need for even greater connectivity to towns and cities. * Kaushik Basu, Cornell University * อ่านมากขึ้น…
