Women of India : An Annotated Bibliography, Paperback / softback Book

Women of India : An Annotated Bibliography Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: British in India series

Paperback / softback

Description

The status and position of Indian women have undergone many changes since the high status they enjoyed in the Vedic era yielded to forced suicide during the dark ages, female infanticide, purdah, child marriages and the denial of property and political rights.

This book, first published in 1985, provides a comprehensive annotated bibliography to hose years, and the years that followed of the relentless liberation struggle by women on the socio-political and legal fronts.
