About the Book

आधुनिक भारत का समाज is a comprehensive textbook designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students in universities across India, as well as candidates preparing for competitive exams like UPSC, PCS, and UGC NET. This book offers an authentic translation of sociological concepts and their analysis, with a special focus on the accurate pronunciation of Western scholars' names—something that is often missing in Hindi books.

The book aims to ensure that Hindi-medium students are not at a disadvantage compared to their English-medium counterparts. By drawing on the latest high-level English books, the author has compiled sociological facts and presented them with original analysis, making the content accessible and relevant.

It serves as a rich repository of sociological facts and information, presenting complex concepts in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. The aim is to provide readers with a new understanding and perspective on Indian culture and society, touching on a wide array of topics:

• India's demographic landscape

• Rural-urban integration and division

• Marriage customs and divorce

• Social order: power, law, crime, and violence

• Caste and tribal social inequalities

• Gender discrimination and disability

• Cultural diversity and the challenges it brings

• Democratic politics and the Panchayati Raj system

• Development and change in rural society

• The Industrial Revolution and its impact on social change

• Social movements and human rights

• Globalization and its effect on society

The book is written by J.P. Singh, a renowned sociologist and demographer, who has had extensive experience as a professor at Patna University and has also served in administrative roles such as Director of Higher Education, Bihar. His expertise makes this book a vital resource for understanding the complexities of Indian society.
