Conceptualizing the Hos of Singhbhum as a tribe, the contributors discuss at length the significance of myth and rituals among the tribals, folk treatment system, dialectics of identity and assimilation, and socio-religion of the tribes. They also examine the impact of modernity and social change on them. A sociological analysis of approaches to tribal development makes part of the volume as well.
