Oman A Country Study is a comprehensive book that offers an in-depth analysis of the country of Oman. Written by the Federal Research Division, the book provides a detailed overview of the geography, history, politics, economy, society, and culture of Oman. The book begins with an introduction that sets the stage for the rest of the study by providing an overview of Oman's geography and history. The subsequent chapters delve deeper into the various aspects of Oman's society, including its political system, economy, and social structure. The book also explores Oman's foreign relations, including its relationships with neighboring countries and its role in regional and international organizations. Additionally, the book provides an analysis of Oman's military and security forces, as well as its environmental concerns and natural resources.Throughout the book, the authors provide a wealth of information on Oman's culture, including its art, music, literature, and religious practices. The book also includes a glossary of Arabic terms and a bibliography for further reading.Overall, Oman A Country Study is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of Oman's history, culture, and society. It is an essential reference for students, scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the Middle East.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.
