It is perhaps the only full-length work that gives in-depth attention to women in a polyandrous context, making it a crucial study in this field. The book's ethnographic approach is grounded in quality fieldwork, offering a first-hand perspective on the subject. The writing is clear and lucid, with theoretical analyses supporting, but never overshadowing, the ethnographic observations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"748\" data-end=\"1482\"\u003eThis study is the first systematic, field-based account of polyandry in the Rawain-Jaunpur (Garhwal) region, an area previously unexamined in terms of polyandrous practices. While polyandry is the central topic, the focus of the book is on the women in these relationships—the \u003cem data-start=\"1025\" data-end=\"1041\"\u003ebahundhartrika\u003c\/em\u003e—and their personal struggles and challenges. By developing a structural-comparative perspective, the book explores women's social status in the regions of Jaunsar-Bawar and Rawain-Jaunpur, raising important ethical and political issues related to their position as \u003cem data-start=\"1307\" data-end=\"1322\"\u003ebahubhartrika\u003c\/em\u003e. This approach marks a departure from traditional functionalist views, offering a deeper exploration of the socio-political implications of polyandry on women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1507\" data-end=\"1625\"\u003eGauri Shankar Bhatt is the Principal Investigator in the UGC project on \u003cem data-start=\"1579\" data-end=\"1624\"\u003eWoman and Family in Non-Polyandrous Garhwal\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Niruta Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50523479114032,"sku":"DRG.NirutaPublication_1002","price":122.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/1671797476.jpg?v=1768545549","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/women-and-polyandry-in-rawain-jaunpur","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
