Review by Choice Review

This specialized study deals with various aspects of rural-urban migration in India: motives behind migration, impact on quality of life in urban centers, and more particularly, the contribution of remittances from urban migrants to the rural sector. The role of such remittances has been examined in depth using carefully collected primary data on regional development. The study is highly useful for graduate students interested in regional planning and development. J. S. Uppal; SUNY at Albany
