This book is a lively chronicle of Indias quest for universal elementary education (UEE) with focus on the period after 1986, a period during which India made spectacular strides and mobilised funding on an unprecedented scale from the World Bank and other agencies in an innovative manner. All in all, the Book provides information and many insights few, even experts, possess, and should be of interest to not only to educationists, and educational administrators but also scholars and practitioners of development cooperation and policymaking in general.
