The book “From Tradition to Transformation: Indian Women Across Time” examines how women’s roles have changed in Indian society over time, following their ascent from traditional, often constrained roles to positions of leadership, influence, and power in contemporary India. This book chronicles the varied and complex experiences of Indian women over time, documenting their hardships, victories, and contributions to a range of fields. The book starts out by looking at the classical and ancient eras, when women were regarded as nurturers and goddesses yet were often constrained by social conventions. The colonial period, which brought possibilities and problems for women’s emancipation, is then covered. The story tracks women’s slow awakening in the 19th and 20th centuries as social reform and feminist movements gained traction. Modern topics including women in politics, business, and the effect of globalisation on gender roles are also covered in the book. It also emphasises how education and technology may help advance women’s rights and opportunities. Throughout, the emphasis is on Indian women’s strength, resilience, and changing identities, honouring their autonomy and the continuous changes in their lives. This book offers a call to action for further advancements in gender equality as well as a historical overview.
