A study that examines the benefits and barriers to education in Asia for women. Changing attitudes are creating new opportunities for women.

The purpose of this book is to promote the use of ordinary women and their experiences in distance education as role models to influence attitudes not only of women themselves, but also of those significant family members who can potentially either support or hinder women. There are case studies from Mainland China, Hong Kong, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. The focus is on addressing the issues that are most likely to influence attitude changes in other women and their husbands and families.
