Unlike many other economists, he was never a growth fetishist. He always wanted to know whom the growth would benefit. His particular interest was in seeing whether the poor would benefit from growth. Concerned with such issues, he emerged as one of the top experts on Indian nutrition and food security. As a keen student of agriculture and food security, he always recommended policies that would raise the food security and well-being of the common man, and not just the elite.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e—Amiya Bagchi,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eEmeritus Professor, Institute of Development Studies, Kolkata\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range of issues covered in the volume: from agriculture to non-banking sector, from poverty and malnutrition to Human Happiness, from welfare function to food security, reflects incredible diversity of scholarship, an enquiring mind, relentlessly trying to grasp complex issues of India’s economic development.
