This book synthesizes the recent literature on growth theory and relates it to welfare issues. The author considers various social indicators such as the literacy level and life expectancy, and discusses their uses as indicators of well-being. He also provides discussions on the determination of needs, rights, the idea of progress and theories of cultural determinism. An introductory chapter considers charges frequently laid against development economics and provides an overview of the subject.
