Over the course of the last two decades, Iran has gone through major
industrial transformation, in spite of major obstacles in the path of
the country's development. This comprehensive book examines the Iranian

Iranian economy. Written by authors who are in positions of leadership
in the industries they discuss, this book offers an unparalleled look
