During this survey I visited 19 districts of Bihar include Patna, Mokama, Barh, Bakhtiyarpur, Barauni, Khagaria, Purnia Katihar, Bhagalpur and Chapra. I visited Kenya (2000), Six years of living and teaching experiences of development economics at Addis Ababa University (2005-07); Gondar University (2007-10); Debre Birhan University (2010-11) in Ethiopia, and UUM, Malaysia (2011-12), have helped shape and refine a book that is unique in approach, organization, and pedagogy in the context of a major set of problems of Development.
