Sundarbans, the largest delta on the earth, has been explored by adventurers, explorers, environmentalists, social historians and social scientists over a period of time since long. Probably In the Lagoons of the Gangetic Delta is the first ever attempt to bring in to relief the Anthropological Perspectives in Sundarbans that lie in the Indian soil depicting various facets of civilizational pool that have created a dent in this Biosphere Zone. The book is a eugenic experiment to portray the human endeavour that glorifies Sundarbans in its own respect. Contributed by scholars belonging to various disciplines the book is hoped to reach the desired objectives. History of reclamation of land in Sundarbans with special reference to the trend of settlement is the fundamental guideline to understand different human processes of operation that lie here. Along with this, ecological and demographic pictures coupled with land reclamation policy lay the foundation for understanding Sundarbans in terms of its spatial and cultural growth.
