Abstract: This book review examines "Regional Development Planning and Practice: Contemporary Issues in South Asia" by Marek Degorski and Bozena Degorska, published by Springer Singapore in 2022. The book provides a systematic and analytical overview of innovative approaches to regional development, including measurement techniques, regional development models, and policy prescriptions. Grounded in a geographical perspective, it conceptualizes development as a regional process, emphasizing the role of regions both as statistical units of analysis and as fundamental spatial entities for planning and governance. With a particular focus on South Asia, the book explores sustainable regional development practices and planning challenges across diverse socio-economic contexts. It offers valuable insights for regional planners, policymakers, and researchers interested in spatial development, sustainability, and regional policy design.
