The East Asian countries have been relatively more advanced than other developing countries in the field of human capital development. Even in the 1960s they managed to attain higher levels of human capital compared with other low- and middle-level economies in the developing world. This volume examines the role of human capital formation in the rapid growth of the East Asian economies. Apart from the formal education variable, other factors such as better health care of the labour force, nutritional status of the population, and on-the-job training are important concerns that were not given sufficient attention in the 1993 World Bank study The East Asian Miracle. This present volume offers many insights of interest to policy-makers and specialists with regard to developing (and transitional) economies.

This book on HRD is a product of many years of my teaching and learning experience at different UG and PG Govt. colleges in the state of Haryana. There is no such book of Human Resource Development available in the market where students of B.A. Economics (Hons.) & M.A. can find the whole syllabus for the preparation of final examinations. Students have to consult a number of books, papers, articles, journals etc. to cover the entire course of study of Human Resource Development for B. A. Economics (Hons.) Semester-VI. This necessitated the publication of this book entitled-'Fundamentals of Human Resource Development so that students can have entire course of study at one place. Students from rural areas will find it very comfortable as language used in this book is very simple and clear. The contribution of some eminent scholars like- Nadler, Swanson, Monika Lee, T. V. Rao and M. N. Khan has immensely influenced my understanding and interest in the subject of HRD. The book describes traditional as well as modern developments in HRD. I am sure this book will be highly valuable to the teachers, students and HRD practitioners.
