8vo., vi, 144pp., original cloth. A fine clean copy in a fine pictorial duswrapper. The problems of Indian cities cannot be understood, much less solved, without a systematic presentation of empiracal data and evaluative analysis. This is the first book to integrate published and unpublished data in a systematic perspective on slum and pavement dwellers in Calcutta, Bombay, Delhi, Madras and other important urban centres. The major social indicators highlighted in this book - population, migration, housing, social organisation, health and nutrition, education, employment and income - focus specifically on their implications for policy and programme design for the urban poor who are overwhelmingly in the informal urban sector.
