Summary, etc. INDIAN men have attained notoriety for their<br/>'impeccable double standards vis-à-vis their career,<br/>social status, tradition and, above all, women. As mama's<br/>darlings, they have different sets of rules for themselves<br/>and for their wives. However, as the world hurtles towards<br/>the next millennium, the average Indian man finds himself<br/>caught in a maelstrom of conflicting emotions,<br/>compelling him to pause and rethink his attitudes and<br/>approach towards life. The traditionally safe male<br/>bastions have been shattered by the emergence of the<br/>new, aggressive, self-confident and no-nonsense woman<br/>be it at home or at the workplace.<br/>This volume seeks to unravel how the urban Indian<br/>men react to the challenges being thrown up by the new<br/>woman and reveals them in their true colours. Are they<br/>willing participants in a changing milieu or merely<br/>helpless observers? Is there an attempt to understand the<br/>changes necessary if sanity and sense have to prevail<br/>within relationships? Are traditional roles being redefined<br/>or are men only men invariably egocentric and<br/>domineering - after all?<br/>Sandhya Mulchandani, in the course of this thought-<br/>provoking volume, attempts to rip off the façade<br/>camouflaging the sordid realities of present-day Indian<br/>society, ridden by paradoxical situations created by an<br/>obsessive fixation with the past and the overwhelming<br/>desire to move into the twenty-first century.
