Rural development is to be seen as an exercise or movement to better the quality of life of rural people through ensuring sustainable household income and regular food security. Rural development must, therefore, be directed towards socio-economic and political transformation resulting in nation building. The innovative technologies and appropriate production inputs backed by improved and encouraging public and private support systems should be kept at the centre stage of rural development planning and its implementation, to share equal benefits to all segments of the society. New Vista in Rural Development-Strategies and Approaches with thirteen well documented chapters, with the prime theme of reorienting rural development, authored by 18 renowned rural development experts, administrators and policy makers from both developed and under-developed countries of the world, is the genuine reflection of it. The book is expected to be of great help to the students, scholars, development administrators and technology transfer personnel in the fields of agricultural and rural development throughout the globe.
