About AARYO

The Social Sciences collection at Aaryo Digital Library brings together 91 works spanning anthropology, ethnology, and social conditions. It includes seminal studies by W. E. B. Du Bois, Franz Boas, and Lydia Maria Child, covering topics such as race relations in the United States, women's social conditions, and the customs of Indigenous peoples. Representative titles examine African American farmers, rural churches, and the social fabric of the Southern States.

This curated selection also features works on the poor in Great Britain, the civilization of ancient societies, and the ethnography of India. Authors like Mayne Reid and John Wesley Powell contribute perspectives on social and moral questions. The collection offers a window into the social sciences as they developed between 1865 and 1918, with a focus on empirical observation and cultural analysis.
