The main and vital objective of this volume is to make in the book a few selected articles that represent some good contributions to the knowledge of rural and tribal development emphasizing poverty migration health and education. While writing the articles I have tried completely to emphasis the concept principles and applied aspects of the rural and triabl development and have tried promptly to concentrate more on practical development oriented articles relating to Science and Technology. This volume will be highly useful to faculty members, agricultural teaching colleges formers and NGOs working on rural and tribal development and to the other researchers.
