This book attempts at up-gradation of slums and squatter settlements in the cities of Munger and Bhagalpur with a view to highlight the socio-economic life of the urban society in terms of environmental pollution. It encompasses almost all aspects of urban life—living conditions, food habits psychological behaviour, dress material, ornaments, types of recreation, musical instruments, arts, level of literacy, political life, caste conflict, infrastructural development and marketing environment. The book is very useful for social scientists, planners and research scholars of psychology, sociology, economics, geography, regional planning and environmental engineering.
