Title: Jāmiʻahʹshināsī-i arzishhā
Description: The book describes the main sociological theories and concepts, social institutions and psychological phenomena, with an emphasis on cultural values, interpersed with discussions of the historical values, especially those of Islam, that have transformed the world view of present day Iranians. The book was first published about 40 years ago, then reissued in an expanded version by a bookseller in Tehran specializing in law books. The release of the book was stopped for 5 years by the Islamic government. When the censors finally gave permission to release it, the publisher was forced to add an incoherent small introduction decrying the book!
