Women Prisoners: A Psycho-Social Diagnosis (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781304935670)

Female criminality and female offenders are the phenomena so rarely addressed by the fraternity of social science academia despite their being of immense social significance and important policy implications. Although all along neglected in social science circles as a phenomena of rare incidence and hence less crucial, of late there has been growing realization that female criminality and its outcome are of far greater consequences and could have more far reaching implications than crime by men and its negative fallout owing to roles of crucial functional significance being allocated to women by the society. Further, even the rarity of female criminality is gradually loosing ground with incidence of crime by women being on the rise.
