N1  - Govind Sadashiv Ghurye (1893-1983) is a towering figure in the sphere of Sociology in India. Variously described as ‘the father of Indian Sociology’, the doyen of Indian sociologists’, or ‘the symbol of Sociological Creativeness’, Professor Ghurye had been engaged in building up almost single-handedly, the entire first generation of Indian sociologists in the post-independence period. Rightly Professor Srinivas said, ‘….nothing disguises the fact that Ghurye was a giant. 
This book is the first comprehensive attempt to analyse Ghurye’s contributions to the field of Indian sociology in his substantive Writings, his theoretical Premises and his vision of Sociology in India. The comprehensive range of Ghurye’s works which span over fifty years, has been arranged and analysed thematically. Ghurye’s role as an institution builder in sociology has been substantially diagnosed. This is the second revised edition of the book. Two new chapters have been added in this edition, covering analytically ‘Indological Foundations in the Sociology of G.S Ghurye’ and ‘G.S Ghurye and the Development of Institutional Sociology in India’. It is hoped that, like the previous edition, this new edition will be received well by the students and researchers in the field of Indian Sociology
