In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: As New. Since the birth of Bangladesh as an independent, sovereign country there has been an upsurge of interest in the study of its capital Dhaka. Such interest has been shown by different scholars-historians, sociologists, geographers, anthropologists, urbanologists, town-planners, architects, journalists and general readers. The curiosity thus shown is understandable as Dhaka is not only the capital of a free country but it is also one of the fastest growing cities of the world. The city has recently experienced unprecedented growth and become so populous that it is already called a mega-city. Such rapid growth has naturally created many problems. Politicians, administrators and experts are now looking into these with a view to addressing them. They are now searching for information on Dhaka. For them, a quick reference to source materials has become indispensable. A bibliographical work on the capital Dhaka in this context has thus become essential. The present bibliographical work is in response to this new demand as well as to help the first time academic researchers on Dhaka. It is the work of two years of research and field work as well as hunting of many libraries, archives, record rooms and other institutions throughout the world. The search has shown that the numbers of works on Dhaka are many and archival materials huge. Since research based books on Dhaka are few, there is a scope for further studies on the capital Dhaka.
