This marginalisation cuts across religion, caste and class barriers to make it an India, though the dimension and the degree may vary in rigidity. The book while giving an overview of the status of widows, focusses on the marginalisation peculiar to individual regions and specific kind of widows. It is indeed a rich and comprehensive compilation of contributions by eminent social scientist who have made even an academic assessment of impact of recent armed conflict in Jammu and Kashmir and Kargil on those who bore the brunt of endless mental and physical agony. Undoubtedly the assessment of each author is unique and Scholarly. The whole book would be very useful for teachers, scholars, students and social activists, intellectuals and socials scientists both in India and abroad. About The Author: Dr. (Mrs.) V. Mohini Giri, the Founder President of the War Widow's Association of India,Chairperson of the National Commission for Women, and presently the Chairperson of the Guild of Service, combines a deep sensitivity to the status of marginalised women with a tremendous capacity to initiate social developmental projects and ensure their effective impact. She has over three decades been working for the empowerment of marginalised women, especially widows. The Guild of Service runs a widows' home "Aamar Bari" in the temple town of Vrindavan where widows are given the dignity of human life. She has through her prolific writing, presentations in seminars at home and abroad been advocating for greater focus of civil society, governments and international organisations on the status of widows and a concerted approach to ensure that they're mainstreamed. Dr. Giri is the author of two books: Kanya focussing on child prostitution and Emancipation and Empowerment of Women which highlights the changes that the 73rd amendment has made to grassroot democracy.
