The Fifth edition of the book-Introductory Rural Sociology-has been brought out by the addition of a new chapter on Gandhi`s Theory of Social Change. In it, his prominent ideas have been discussed, increasing students` awareness of Gandhian mode of living and thinking. Other aspects of the text have been kept intact as their revision has been considered neither necessary nor desirable. They have proved themselves over the years to stand valid, relevant and applicable. The concepts and principles explained in the book enhance its comprehension and utility by students and development personnel.
