The second chapter, 'Poverty and Ethics', deals with the Ethical reasons for perpetuation of poverty in spite of material progress in course of human history. The third chapter, 'Material Progress and Ethics: a Historical Perspective', visualizes the propelling force of human society as the conflict between unbridled self-interest and social ethics, contesting the Marxian theory of 'class struggle'.

The fifth chapter, 'Human Development in Ancient Indian Texts' takes up the issue of human development embodied in ancient Indian texts.
