China and India are the two most populous countries in the world, and two of the fastest growing. By sheer virtue of the fact that these two countries are home to 2.4 billions people-two-fifths of the world's population-the rapid growth of their economies has far-reaching implications not just for global living standards and poverty reduction, but also for the distribution of income in the rest of the world. Commensurate with their economic progress, there has been a surge of interest in the nature and implications of their economic growth.
