In all societies, to a greater or lesser degree women and girls are subjected to physical, sexual and psychological abuse that cuts across lines of income, class and culture. The violence may be occurring in the family, within the general community, or perpetrated or condoned by the state. Battering, dowry-related violence, marital rape, sexual harassment, intimidation at work, trafficking in women and forced prostitution etc. are the crimes against women. This has remained a much-debated issue. The present book encompasses vital information on diverse aspects of crime against women and remedial steps. The entire information is organised under fifteen chapters. Definitely, this will prove a vade mecum to one and all concerned.
