The special virtue of this book is its analysis of urban development in Iran. Kheirabadi, a geographer, discusses the formation and development of the traditional Iranian citythat is, the city before the general modernization of Iran that began after World War IIin the light of specially Iranian environmental (topography, climate, and availability of water) factors. . . . The maps and plans in the book are clear and helpful. .. . . The book will be of interest to anyone concerned with Islamic urban history or with Iranian society and culture."
