<p>For the purpose of celebrating 100 years of teaching anthropology in India, the Council of the Indian Anthropological Society undertook a programme of organizing a series of Special Lectures in the cherished memory of a selected group of distinguished anthropologists of India who immensely contributed to the growth of Indian anthropology in three of its sub-disciplines over the last 10 decades.</p><p>Thus, in all 14 special lectures were organized by the Society in collaboration with 14 different institutions engaged in either teaching and/or research in Anthropology. However, we have received 11 articles written by senior anthropological scholars for publication in this book.</p><p>The distinguished anthropologists whose life and academic contributions are portrayed in this book are: B. K. Roy Burman, B.N. Saraswati, U. Deka, P.K. Bhowmik, L.P. Vidyarthi, P.K. Ganguly, G. Sarana, D.P. Mukherjee, B.N. Banerjee, D.K. Bhattacharya and A. Basu.</p><p>It is expected that this rich collection of papers should be of much help to all serious students of anthropology, providing them with enough motivating spirit to work towards the advancement of anthropology.</p><p><br></p>
