Oman A Country Study is a comprehensive book that provides an in-depth analysis of the geography, history, politics, economy, and culture of Oman. The book is authored by the Federal Research Division, a division of the Library of Congress, and is intended for researchers, scholars, students, and anyone interested in learning about Oman.The book begins with an overview of Oman's geography, including its topography, climate, and natural resources. It then delves into the country's history, tracing its evolution from ancient times to the present day. The book covers Oman's political system, including its government and legal system, as well as its foreign relations and military.The economy of Oman is also discussed in detail, including its oil and gas industry, agriculture, and tourism. The book also explores the social and cultural aspects of Oman, including its religion, language, and customs.Throughout the book, the authors provide insightful analysis and commentary on the various topics covered. The book is well-researched and includes numerous maps, charts, and tables to help readers better understand the information presented.Overall, Oman A Country Study is an excellent resource for anyone seeking to gain a deeper understanding of Oman and its people. It is a comprehensive and authoritative guide that covers all aspects of the country, making it an essential reference for researchers, scholars, and students alike.Since the development of the country's infrastructure in the 1970s, national development plans have given priority to reducing dependency on oil exports and encouraging income-generating projects in non-oil sectors (diversification), promoting privatesector investment, and effecting a wider geographical distribution of investments to correct regional imbalances. Such a wider distribution is intended to narrow the gap in the standard of living in different regions, develop existing areas of population, and discourage migration to densely populated urban centers, such as Muscat (also seen as Masqat), the capital. Equally important are the national goals to develop local human resources, to increase indigenous participation in the private sector, and to improve government management and organization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
