The Positive Background of Hindu Sociology c3.156

“The work deals with all the branches of social insurance, namely, (1) sickness and maternity, (2) accident and occupational diseases, (3) invalidity, old age, widowhood and (4) unemployment. Every branch is described with special reference to practical management, as well as the financial results of administration. The experience of Germany, Great Britain and France in every branch of social insurance forms the basis of the author's investigations. But the experience of Italy, Japan, Czechoslovakia, the U.S.S.R. and the United States has also been laid under contribution. The more or less relevant Indian data have been placed in due perspective. The book is written with an eye to India's economic development, social progress and national efficiency. The facts and figures are addressed, first, to insurance men and financiers, secondly, to trade unions and labour leaders, and thirdly, to medical men and health workers.”
