| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | The interaction of population and poverty in the rural areas of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal is the subject of this book. The contributors examine two major premises: that the indirect effects of population growth on poverty are as important as the direct effects because population growth affects the balance of economic, social and technological forces involved in production and distribution; that poverty is a multi-dimensional phenomenon, which may include both absolute and relative deprivation and involve not only consumption levels but factors such as assets, health and education. |
