Contemporary Social Problems in India

 
Sibnath Deb (Author)
Synopsis The author of this book has undertaken the enormous task of reviewing Contemporary Social Problems of one of the world's most populous countries and to provide research-based approaches to alleviate those problems. India is a country rich in history and experience, but a country like many others that is not yet able to deal effectively with the problems continuing to plague its citizens--poverty, illiteracy, lack of family planning, social stigma, and the rapidly developing problem of AIDS. The author has clearly defined the problems, explained the negative effects, reviewed current international policies and guidelines, and included current information on empirically based approaches to addressing them. Based on the extensive information provided in this book on the major social problems in India, the book will be useful for a variety of readers. It will be an excellent text for students planning to become physicians, sociologists, lawyers or government employees. It is valuable reading for all those in government service and particularly for those planning to run for public office. It could be used as the basic for a governmental task force appointed to develop a strategic plan for reducing social problems in India.
