This highly interesting book studies the cultural context of modernisation of middle-class Muslim women in late 19th and 20th century Bengal. Its frames of reference are the Bengal 'Awakening', the Reform Movements - Brahmo/Hindu and Muslim - and the Women's Question as articulated in material and ideological terms throughout the period. Tracing the emergence of the modern Muslim gentlewomen, the bhadramahila, starting in 1876 when Nawab Faizunnesa Chaudhurani published her first book and ending with the foundation in 1939 of The Lady Brabourne College, the book gives an excellent analysis of the rise of a Muslim woman's public sphere and broadens our knowledge of Bengali social history in the colonial period.

Gender inequality is a global phenomenon, only the manifestations vary form and degree in different cultures. In majority of the societies girls grow up with a nation of temporary membership in her natal home and considered as a reproductive machine in the family of 'in Law'. This reproductive role becomes limited to household chores. The women's role has changed tremendously and is making its greatest impact in our society today. Many years ago, women's contribution to society was limited and controlled by men. Women are standing tall and are playing a major role in many important areas. Women's role has changed at an accelerating rate and have part in areas such as politics, professional training jobs, medicine, business and law. Formerly they were not part of any political matter, but they have advanced in many aspectS.

Occupational structure of people is one of the significant determinants of human group disparities in socio-economic development. Various development indicators substantiate that women lag behind men in most of yardsticks that measure gender justice and human development, occupation is one of them. A country or society can't realize its dream of becoming super power by ignoring the better half of the humanity. This study aims to investigate Muslim women work participation in West Bengal based on population census in 2001, as the results have indicated that Muslims constitute 13.4 per cent of the country and 25.25 per cent of West Bengal's population. Indeed, it is the second largest religious minority community in the country. Sex ratio among Muslim population is 933 in West Bengal, which is higher than the national level. Illiteracy rate of Muslim women is higher and they have not been able to take full advantage in society. There also exists a wide gap between males and females work participation rate. Besides, a significant proportion of Muslim women are recorded as unskilled in the state. Keeping these points in view the present study analyses Muslim women work participation in West Bengal in general and by occupational groups in particular.
