The present book is not only the holistic study of these people, but also emphasises their economic transformation in the varied ecology, which ultimately brought some socio cultural changes in the life pattern of this tribe. The author examined the factors responsible for their primitiveness. This book is useful not only as an ethnographic documentation, but it will help social scientists and social workers to understand the problems of the primitive tribe and possible prospects as well.
