There is a felt need to provide students and researchers with a suitably simple yet comprehensive introduction to the subject of Social Anthropology. The present publication seeks to fulfill this need and it is hoped that not only will the book provide the basic guidelines for the aspiring students of anthropology but also equip the research student with a roadmap to the complexities of the subject for his further studies and specialization. All the key areas are well presented and covered in detail. They include the basic principles, analysis of social structure, fine-tuning of areas of research into kinship and marriage custom, importance of the role of religion and caste in various societies and study of family as the basic social unit of society. It is intended for the undergraduate students, young social scientist and research student, who will benefit substantially.
