This book is an effort in the direction of understanding research towards a finding of the lower status of women in society was among the basic underlying causes of maternal malnutrition (physical health) and women’s poor mental health. However, women’s status defines their position in society. It is both their standing as well as the perception in society as to where they actually belonged to an inverse association between nutritional status at reproductive age and the experience of adverse psychological, physical and social outcomes truly represent the women’s status in India.
