The book gives a comprehensive account of various art forms as practised in different corners of India almost as a way of life. Written in a lucid style, different aspects of 6the rich performance tradition of the country with is own typical myths, customs, traditions and folk life get unraveled before us in these pages. Tracing the tradition of performing arts to the times when the performance of the two epics and the puranas were the only source of entertainment and outlet for creative energy, the book goes on to discuss the rise and fall of the Sanskrit classical theatre, and other art forms viz.; the masks, puppets martial arts, the wandering bards down to the multi-faceted progress of the modern theatre after the independence. Profusely illustrated with black and white as well as well colour, it is a significant contribution to the writings on the performing arts and an important key to the soceo-cuitural understanding of country.
