This also resulted in the infiltration of sizable foreign population in the sub-continent. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The political consequences of these invasions were indeed great and these have been adequately dealt with by scholars. The social consequences of foreign invasions have not, however, attracted the attention of scholars in the same measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e This book is an attempt to analyse and interpret these political upheavals in cultural terms. Food and drinks, dress ornaments and toilet, cults and cult objects, social organization and the caste system and social entertainments are primary to a society where the influence, if any, is most fundamental. These are, therefore, the aspects which have been taken up for studying the social impact of foreign invasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the Author \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Dr. U.
