| Abstract
|
:
|
This book offers a fascinating account of the development of women police over the past twenty years. It draws on the author's extended research in India, during a period of massive social change from a traditional society to a democratic, capitalist state. The author demonstrates how the Indian experience offers a valuable alternative model to the Anglo-American experience, not only for traditional societies but for women police in the West as well.
