Culture and human society are the two faces of the same coin. They always go hand-in-hand. Culture is a unique feature that differentiates human society from animals. Man is not only a social animal, but also a cultural animal, every man can be considered as a representative of the culture. Therefore culture can also be considered an important agency of social change. 

According to Robert Bierstedt:

“Culture is the Complex whole that consists of everything we think and do and have as members of society”.

According to Malinowski:

“Culture is the handiwork of man and the medium through which he achieves his ends”.

According to Edward B.Tylor:

“Culture is that complex whole which includes knowledge beliefs, arts, morals, law, custom, language and any other capabilities acquired by man as a member of society”.
