Shalini Grover examines the shifts in marriages, the nature of remarriages, and various other types of unions. The text describes these diverse relationships with care, providing insight into how social structures function on the ground. Additionally, the author looks at the close ties married women maintain with their mothers and natal families. This work provides a significant contribution to the study of anthropology and sociology, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in Indian social dynamics and kinship structures.
