Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Included. Urbanisation An analysis of Census and Ancillary Data provides a comprehensive macro to micro level analysis on trends of urbanisation and growth dynamics of urban population of the geographically biggest and centrally located State of India Madhya Pradesh. Two case studies incorporated in the book one pertaining to a fast growing town Korba and the other of a stagnating town Maheshwar provide a vivid account of the urbanisation process operating at the opposite extremes. To wit it shows how a sleepy village turned into a highly industrialised urban centre within a short span of 2 decades and how a historically prominent place like Maheshwar which is having a recorded history of five thousand years lost its past glory and became an obscure small town despite of its being the capital of well known princely State Holkars in the late 18th century and also despite of its being a renowned centre of traditional handicraft viz. Maheswari Saris. (jacket) 250 pp. Seller Inventory # 100001627
