""Refreshing to read as the chapters are analytically robust, lucid in style, maintain logical flow, and bring nuanced insights on a wide range of thematic areas. The overarching concern of this anthology is to examine two crucial areas of gendered realities: education and workforce. . . . [A] timely publication [that] gains great significance to identify the roots of hurdles and major challenges in approaching gender equality and finding solutions to them. . . . An important resource for policymakers, political and development practitioners, employers and educationists, and of course students, research scholars, and teachers."" —From the Foreword by Vibhuti Patel, Vice President, Indian Association for Women‘s Studies
