“Island Tribes of Andaman and Nicobar” provides a thorough examination of the native populations living in this isolated archipelago. The book explores the rich cultural history, customs, and way of life of many tribes, including the Great Andamanese, Onge, and Jarwa, who have spent generations living in isolation. It gives a thorough explanation of their religious systems, social structures, and methods for surviving in a harsh environmental setting. The book also looks at how these tribes have been affected by modernisation and outside forces, exploring how they have either embraced or rejected change while retaining their unique identities.The book emphasises the precarious existence of these tribes and the continuous difficulties they confront in maintaining their culture and way of life through detailed descriptions and extensive research. It highlights how crucial it is to comprehend and honour the distinct cultural legacy of the Andaman and Nicobar tribes and urges action to shield these communities from the negative effects of development, modernisation, and climate change.
