Synopsis "The book written by Dr. Om Raj Singh Vishnoi is quite infor mative and readable. The association of the author with Police Training for more than a decade including several Gender Sensitisation training programmes for the police personnel of various levels has in fact provided distinct insights and vision to the author which have been, in a way, crystallised into the pages of this title. The broad spectrum of the topics covered include: the genesis and expansion of women police in India and abroad; earlier inhibitions, and entry of women in the male dominion of police system, mode of appointment, training; duties being handled by them; new social dimensions of their duties; problems and prospects."
