O knihe
This book is specially based on a research carried out in M.Sc. degree at Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok, Thailand in 2005. The author attempts to measure the accessibility considering the topography and basic services such as road, market, health centers and school in the rural area. The cost surface modelling is the method for measuring the accessibility. Similarly, the measurement of the poverty in terms of accessibility is the another interesting method mentioned in this book. The author also attempts to measure the poverty considering the multiple dimensions of human development- socio-economic, women development, deprivation and infrastructural development. For this, he uses zero-to-one, a unitless scoring transformation method. The author expects that the delineation of various accessible zones in rural area will be helpful for planners, policy and decision makers for the betterment of the rural people.
