The purpose behind writing this book is definitely not to make yet another addition in the vastly expanding anthropological literature. A standard text book, that intends to summarize into capsule form diverse areas of anthropology, explaining key terms and backed by objective type questions for an honest self assessment, was just the need of the hour. This is the first volume of Unifying Anthropology dealing with Social Cultural Anthropology and the related peripheral areas. The next one shall be covering Physical Anthropology and Archaeology. The selection of topics has been done in such a way that it should fulfill the requirements of students at the college/university level as well as the aspirants for the Civil Services and State Administrative Services.
