| Summary, etc | This book provides a comprehensive sociological study of suicide in India. Drawing on original research and existing data, Peter Mayer examines the reliability of suicide statistics and analyzes factors such as age, gender, education, occupation, marriage, urbanization, alcohol use, and regional variations in suicide rates. The book argues that youth suicide constitutes a major but often overlooked social and public health problem, and it challenges several common assumptions about suicide in India. Special attention is given to suicide in Pondicherry and among the Indian diaspora. |
