Book Description
According to Arnold J. Toynbee, ‘India is a world in itself; it is a society of the same immensity and importance as is our Western society’. In global perspective, the immensity, diversity, and unique importance of Indian society and culture can hardly be underestimated. This reference volume, first published in 1975, encompasses studies that reflect both the unity and diversity of India’s culture and social system.

Book Description
This is primarily a study of the effects of India's political economy on the health of its rural population. The empirical data is mainly based on four month's fieldwork in a village 40 miles from Lucknow, in Uttar Pradesh. The fieldwork included a survey of the income and health of 102 households; physical measurement of nearly 500 villagers; participant observation of the village and of the nearby Primary Health Centre; and interviews with over 50 local medical practitioners, users of a variety of medical systems.

Book Description
Focussing on patterns of intergenerational stability, this book traces the unequal structures of opportunity in India. The author addresses questions and approaches towards social mobility (or the lack thereof) through interactions between social class, caste, and gender while adopting a rural–urban perspective, capturing changes over time, and the implications of social mobility on a national scale. This book plugs in crucial gaps in the research on social mobility, which has been marked by the lack of precision regarding the extent of mobility in contemporary India. Using a broad lens of both caste and class, this up-to-date statistical analysis, which uses national-level datasets and advanced quantitative methods, enriches the sociological as well as the anthropological literature, while also locating India within the larger context of social mobility research in the industrialized and industrializing world.
