About the Book
The book delves into the historic, psychological and social aspects of the “sati” tradition which was abolished in Nepal in July 1920. The “sati” practice, a social scourge, meant a wife burning herself alive on the funeral pyres of the husband.
The book has eight chapters. The author wrote the book after researching the “sati” custom that was prevalent in Nepal and India.
