Herstory  (English, Paperback, Thakur Nikita)

In historical records, little was written about women. Most researchers back then were Western men, projecting a white male perspective on the past as well. One of the greatest blunders that these accounts made was with the Indian woman— she was thrown out of context, misunderstood, and misrepresented, leading women's history to be half-cooked, one sided and overpowered by His story. However, with new evidence, accounts and studies coming in, things are starting to change and Her story is also beginning to emerge. ??is book is a recollection of these accounts that shed a new light on women and especially Indian women. It is made from a standpoint acknowledging that everything was not gold in the past, there were problems but not everything was bad too. Hopefully, with this book the reader may learn of practices and people that were way ahead of their time, establishing groundbreaking standards on women empowerment, gender equality, sexuality and equality in general.
