     Summary

The economies of china and India, the world’s two most populous nations, have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Even a new term, “Chindia”, was created to refer to the two countries together in general. There are many comparative studies of the two Asian giants. This volume focuses exclusively on economic growth and several critical issues associated with growth in the two economies. It combines quantitative examination with qualitative analysis. It not only provides valuable insights into those growth-related issues, but also raises many questions which are to be explored in the future. The volume should be of interest to postgraduate students, researchers and business analysts.
