This book encompasses concepts, notions and practices of gender to help the readers understand how boys and girls imbibe gender roles through various institutions such as school, media, peer group, family etc. The unequal access of education to girls is a well-documented reality which demands the possible solutions at the earliest. The book thus throbs with relevant issues to enable the readers examine these factors and challenge the gender inequalities thereby reinforcing gender parity which is likely to open up the ways to look at gender-based practices in community and school with a critical mind.
