Santosh Mehrotra, Institute of Applied Manpower Research, Government of India

The authors develop a powerful conceptual framework that is likely to become an essential starting point for policymakers and those committed to promoting sustainable human development within and across regions.' David A. Clark, University of Cambridge, UK
'A comprehensive analysis of the conditions for, and the contribution of actors to, sustainable human development at the local level.
