This book gives a vivid account of women's empowerment. Based on case studies, this has become an ideal reading. The following chapters make core of the study-Introduction; empowerment of rural women; vieled women and empowerment of women; women's rights; social change; women and law; women empowerment through social reform movements; social status of Indian women; supporting women entrepreneurs; Indian women and their educational status; Indian women and social change. An exhaustive bibliography and some documents are added features of the work.
Hopefully, a veritable mine of information, this will serve the purpose of students, researchers and teachers besides the policy planners, and activists in the field. |
