Yearning for progress is common with individuals and communities. It is a complex process, competitive in nature, knowledge-driven, full of uncertainties, shows interdependence, needs application of mind, and demands maturity. Development processes involve multiple parameters like technology, innovation, services, training, entrepreneurship, socio-economic conditions, mature leadership, infrastructure, etc. However, general contours, influencing factors, and side effects of development are reasonably known. These are natural trends, and the realities could be best understood with positive thinking free from burdens of biases, ideologies, and strategies. Few topics covered in the book are common experiences and useful to understand the natural processes of development and the underlying human factors. The collated articles help in taking a dispassionate and balanced view. Pooling of assets, resources, innovations, and skills for development, with minimum side effects, needs positive thinking and attitudinal changes. Development is a common cause, evolutionary in nature, and helps in improving living conditions. The issues involved are puzzling, have many unknowns, and change with time and situation. Handling them needs diverse skills. The articles in the book are generic, independent, and related to the theme.
