LEARNING ISSUES The book describes the present and future scenario in India and in the developed country It compares the various statistical data and explains how India can improve on it. We always rely on developed countries to come up with some solution to make our life comfortable. That makes more import to our country than the export. And hence the net money flows to the developed country. The solution is to build up our R&D strength. CRITICAL ANALYSIS When we try to be in sink with the vision of the author its just amazing feeling It was supposed to be a book not document. The language is not interactive The book should attract by language and show the facts in a hidden way. Facts and figures should only be provided when a reader wants to go to details.
