Contents: 1.Introduction. 2.Gender Stereotyping and Higher Education: Review of Literature. 3.Research Methodology. 4.Higher Education Across Gender and Development: Analysis and Interpretation of Data. 5.Conclusions. Comprehensive Bibliography. Index. Education remains a potent and dynamic instrument for national development and social transformation, and internationally accepted a key development index. Over the years, India has expressed commitment to education with special emphasis on female education. However, the gender gap is said to be widen as girls move up the formal education ladder. Why the situation persists despite efforts by governments, international organizations and NGOs to boost female education over the years? It appears that the real issues have not been appropriately addressed. One area that seems to have not been well explored is the issue of gender stereotyping. The book points to this and other range of issues that interplay to affect female access to education. It may be useful for students and research scholars having interest in higher education and gender studies. (jacket).
