Synopsis "Women in India are the back bone of society, they are its conscience keepers, so to say. They have kept moral and cultural values alive. They have a strong sense of responsibility and have avoided strife even at the cost of their own welfare. They are working at domestic and economic front simultaneously. Development is not sex neutral. It is based against the fair sex. Of course the world has progressed and some benefits and percolated to women. But an inferior role is ascribed to them in all societies. This volume examines the entire gamut of issues relating to contribution of women to income employment, work in non-marketed activities, their wage imputation, work participation & time profile. All the analysis have been summarized in seven chapters with recommendations for their welfare and betterment."
