This excellant volume, containing twenty-four valuable articles from the pen of eminent writers and a scholarly introduction by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, is an attempt, the first of its kind, to survey the position and prospect of women in Indian society during the last five thousand years through an illustrative study of the lives and achievements of the more outstanding among them. A study of this book will surely lead to a proper understanding of the subject and a correct assessment of Indian culture.
Your Atman is the support of the universe -- whose support do you stand in need of? Wait with patience and love and strength. If helpers are not ready now, they will come in time. Why should we be in a hurry? The real working force of all great work is in its almost unperceived beginnings.
-Swami Vivekananda
