Reviews
"Overall, this book should constitute essential reading for both graduate students and established researchers interested in the empirical analysis ... . the book provides an excellent methodological illustration ... . Micro-theorists stand to learn much from the book ... . Conversely, applied researchers can profitably use the book to brush up ... . Additionally, the book should be of great use to economists and public policy researchers interested in current debates on poverty, deprivation and inequality in India." (Indraneel Dasgupta, Economic Record, Vol. 95 (311), December, 2019)

Synopsis
This collection of essays covers a diverse set of topics related to household behavior and welfare. Prices play a key role in several of the essays, particularly the distributional implications of price movements, and the effects of changes in relative prices on inequality and poverty. This book shows the shift in the literature on prices from being an exclusively macro topic featuring the study of inflation and cross-country comparisons to one that is firmly rooted in micro theory-based analysis of household behavior. It also includes recent developments in the poverty measurement literature, documenting the shift from the exclusively money metric and unidimensional poverty measures to multidimensional poverty encompassing a wider view of deprivation. Largely, but not exclusively, focusing on India, the book also features global comparisons of welfare. Intra country spatial comparisons along with cross country comparisons of household behavior and welfare feature in several of the essays in this book. The book also compares the effects of selected public delivery schemes in India on the health of its children. It is a useful resource for researchers and serves as reading material for advanced graduate courses on development in India and elsewhere., This collection of essays covers a diverse set of topics related to household behavior and welfare.

- 6***3 (38)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook is very short on technical information. The author recommends buying preexisting lithium ion battery cells from manufacturers, then bundling them together to make battery packs. Even this information is very sketchy technically. They just might have remarked, "call Elon Musk at Tesla and buy some batteries from him." Author needs to revise the book. I was looking for a technical treatse on how to make lithium battery cell from scratch. Thank you
