Three decades after publication, it remains unsurpassed in the scope and depth of its reportage, providing an intimate view of the daily struggles of the poor and the efforts, often ludicrous, made to uplift them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Indian poor are too often reduced to statistics. In the dry lan­guage of development reports and economic projections, the true misery of the hundreds of millions living below the poverty line gets overlooked. In this thoroughly researched study of the poorest of the poor, we see how they manage and what sustains them. The people in this book typify the lives and aspirations of a large sec­tion of Indian society, and their stories give a glimpse into the true face of development.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePalagummi Sainath\u003c\/b\u003e (born 1957) is an Indian journalist and photojournalist who focuses on social problems, rural affairs, poverty and the aftermath of globalization in India.
