Influence of globalisation in emerging India is examined with reference to a wide range of specific topics broadly grouped under three themes: (a) Globalisation, (b) Gender Disparities, and (c) Information technology. A critical look at the progress in recent years, lessons learnt, issues for which solutions are yet to be found, and directions for the future are all spelt out on each topic based on the research endeavours of contributors. The publication is of great value to all those involved or interested in the themes covered above. Policy makers, administrators, researchers and academics will find it particularly enlightening. Directions shown for action-oriented programmes, and for pursuing further research at micro level, through specific case studies is an added attraction. The findings and suggestions of the contributors form an invaluable contribution to the literature on the subject.
