ABSTRACT
Published in 1968: The author not only pioneered modern-style village surveys in both England and India, but also modern style urban surveys and studies in India. There he broke new ground in his remarkable first-hand researches on agricultural labour, village economics, depressed or "Untouchable" classes in town and country, and human and industrial relations in India’s first steel town, Jamshedpur. In the text of this book we reproduce thirty-five of the author’s papers – in whole, in part, or in summary.
