Anthropology Book by Tirumal Sir
What is anthropology? Where did the man come from? How did he evolve into today’s modern man? Answers to these and other chain of questions can be found in this book. As an optional, Anthropology has helped me get through the UPSC CSE mains in all my attempts. Travelling with the subject for many long years {my preparation and teaching anthropology to my students} has seeded an interest in writing a solid book for all my fellow aspirants to rely entirely on. This series of books is the outcome of this enthusiasm.
Anthropology as an optional has been one of the most opted subjects by the aspirants. As a one-stop solution for those aspirants, I’ve compiled this book with each minute detail so that it can be easily understood. I thank my dear student Dattaniranjan, who also holds good command over the subject, for putting his efforts into this book. His actions are noticeable in the hand-drawn diagrams in this book. I also thank Raghavendra Kuppelur for wonderful design of the jacket of this book.
