"This is one of the first books to provide a comprehensive analysis of the determinants of saving and investment in India. It examines the role of financial factors in economic development. The analysis provides a detailed account of the underlying growth process and related social, political, and institutional aspects." "Combining quantitative methods with qualitative analysis, this work examines: economic policies prevailing in India since independence; the changing perceptions on key economic issues; determinants, trends and patterns of investment and saving in India; and the role of policies in mediating the relationship between investment and growth rates." "The econometric evidence is presented and interpreted in the context of literature from other developing countries."--BOOK JACKET.
