Target 3 Billion: Innovative Solutions Towards Sustainable Development:
The book talks about the 3 billion people across the globe who live in villages and are often deprived of basic resources. It integrates the challenges and opportunities of the present human civilization and elaborates on providing Urban Amenities in Rural Areas (PURA), a sustainable and environment-friendly system that will uplift the rural masses. The authors pose the question-what can I do to empower 3 billion people? The answers have been provided from the perspectives of citizens, students and senior citizens.
India 2020: A Vision for the New Millennium:
The authors offer a blueprint for India to be counted among the world’s top five economic powers by the year 2020. They cite growth rates and development trends to show that the goal is not unrealistic. Past successes-the green revolution and satellite-based communication linking remote regions of the country, for instance bear them out.
Beyond 2020: A Vision for Tomorrow’s India:
Kalam and Rajan argue that a renewed policy focus is now needed for agriculture, manufacturing, mining, the chemicals industry, healthcare and infrastructure to invigorate these sectors and boost economic growth. India can still make it to the list of developed nations in a decade.
