Since its inception in 1971, the account of Bangladesh as a country has been nothing short of a miracle. Within a mere 50 years, the country's journey has turned its previous label as a "bottomless basket "around, giving way to an emerging "Asian Tiger" as it currently marches towards its goal of becoming developed by 2041. The present book is a scholarly endeavor to depict this astonishing tale of a dream come true, hoping that readers will find the book absorbing and thought provoking.
