An Introduction to Social Anthropology

Social anthropology is an interesting subject based on studies in cultures. Anthropologists have found that certain social groups like tribes, peasants, landless labour as isolated social groups have maintained their separate identity and they possess potentialities of providing information to other social groups which can prove to be of formidable value to them and to the society at large. This book has tried to give information about Indian conditions. The editor is grateful to all those authors whose articles have been compiled and annotated in this book. The editor is grateful to other foreign sources also where help has been taken.
