*About the book*:
The theme has deep bearing on five volumes in connection with the  
Madrasa
System of Education which was supported by prominent pioneers. They  
clearly
realised the need of a forum which would develop the socio-economic,
cultural, intellectual and educational life of Muslims. Adequate  
funds were
collected from people who had deep interest in this direction.

The five volumes have given us deep insight into the various phases of
development of education in the Indian sub-continent. In fact the  
'disease'
of illiteracy was to be eradicated from its roots. In fact the tours  
abroad
by prominent educationists did help its financial resources.

These volumes would be useful for social scientists, teachers,  
researchers
and students in India and abroad.
