Hardcover. Zustand: New. Urbanization, rise in female education, democratization of political system, spread of media of mass communication and modernization have brought epoch-making changes in man-woman relationships on a societal canvass.

I believe the book will be found useful by scholars, students and professionals who work with gender issues and also by lay people interested in the study of Indian women.…
