      abstract = {This book focuses on the modernization of Bangladesh. It  does so by including case studies at the national and  sub-national government levels and comparative studies with  other countries. Chapters in the book highlight how a  number of aspects have been affected in the modernization  process, such as the adoption of 'western' curriculum and  English language in schools, the use of animation to boost  school student comprehension of texts, the rural-urban  divide, pedagogical training to emergent  andragogy-dependent market needs, converting 'local'  shipping experiences to fill growing 'global' needs, and  multilateral environmental adaptation and mitigation  mandates being adopted 'locally.'
