Abstract:	It is the contention of this book that 'equitable distribution of resources is not an automatic corollary of growth', and that the issue of equitable distribution of wealth or even development is a critical element in sustained national development. The contributors to this book have made efforts to define the concept of even development, analyse some existing patterns of unevenness in Nigeria and their implications, examine various strategies, instruments, processes and frameworks for achieving even development, and make a number of far-reaching recommendations for action.
