It contextualizes parks in India, followed by a thick case study of an innovative scheme that appears to buck the trend.

It frees up women's time and enables them to participate in the labor market. More subtly, a home and its environs affect identity and self-respect.

Unless the people of Africa and other poor countries have access to markets to sell their products, they will not escape poverty or be able to give their children a better future.
