Book excerpt: The volume ‘Facts and Artifacts of Society’ is an assemblage of revealing the work of a group of professionals from multidisciplinary backgrounds to understand society. It intends to justify the spectral dimension of society through a professional lens and provides an exciting opportunity to clarify fundamental concepts of contemporary society. In recent context, this joint venture of professionals is of extrinsic value in promoting the well-being and prosperity of all in our society. Each of the chapters in this book is an independent effort to bring out an in-depth understanding of that particular aspect. The first section focuses on understanding society, the second section reflects the social construct of our society, the third section made an effort in bringing out the environmental issues, the fourth section pulls our attention to women’s studies, the fifth section emphasizes child care and protection, the sixth section highlights the physical and mental health aspects in the correctional setting, the seventh section focused on aspects of mental health and substance abuse and the eighth section focused on few other vulnerable issues, like, homosexuality and the dissonance of migration. The book unfolds a few key areas to make it valuable for analysing our society, especially for those who want to make satisfactory contributions to society. Since few of the topics are complex while few are having limited literature. Thus, the current volume may be helpful building blocks for the academicians, researchers, professionals, and policymakers etc. who closely work with the issues or the society at large society.
