Identity of the Adolescent Girl

Neerja Sharma (Author)

Synopsis "This book delves into the little known area of the life of the teenaged girl in India. Based on a research study of rural and urban girls of North India, the author presents a sensitive portrayal of the adolescent girl whose sense of identity is found to be strongly influenced by experiences of gender discrimination in all spheres of socialization. The material gathered is based on in-depth interviews of 150 girls during which they revealed their experiences of discrimination, perceptions about menstruation, sex and marriage and their aspirations. Five detailed case studies provide a rare insight into the lives of these young women through whom the reader will get a peep into the thoughts, beliefs, dreams and actions of the groups they represent."
