Women and girls who are at the bottom of the social, economic and political leader in the societies, get even lessor opportunities to have a command over productive resources such as land or credit. Access to the means to influence the development process is a rare and difficult possibility.
And yet, by the same logic, gender discrimination hinders development. So, while denial of basic rights (be it education, employment or health care for women) is detrimental to women, this denial ultimately also harms the society.
The book is endowed with multitude of elaborative facts pertaining to womeneducation, employment and gender discrimination.
