Mukopadhyay discusses how the practices available in yogic sciences can preserve mental health and can prevent mental ailment along with its remedial measures.

Dr. D.M. Pestonjee and Taronish Pastakia reflect upon inter-generational adjustment issues in the workplace. The modern world of work has to take into account factors like uncertainty, complexity, speed, technology, virtual- workspace, hyperspecialization, cultural diversity and communication, and also macro-level factors like gender-issues, work-life balance, the changing legal environment, social structure, and support systems and mental health issues. Cutting-edge advances in the virtual-workspace like the roles of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) have also been discussed.
