Bangladesh Yesterday Today Tomorrow – Essays in Honour of Professor Sanat Kumar Saha

Bangladesh: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow is a fitting tribute to the scholarly achievements of Professor Sanat Kumar Saha. It contains well researched, readable, multidisciplinary accounts and analyses of Bangladesh’s development issues (historical, cultural, social and economic) and also pays attention to more general development issues. Topics are set in their broad contexts. This adds value to this unique volume. This festschrift will be profitable reading not only for audiences in Bangladesh but in the whole of South Asia and beyond. It is highly recommended. The editors are to be congratulated on their sterling effort and their empathy.
