The book “Feasibility Study of Issuance of Sukuk in Iranian Economy, a Case Study of Mining and Mining Industries” is a report of a research project carried out by Amir Hossein Mozini in the Economics Research Institute of Tarbiat Modares University. This work deals with how the mining sector is financed through the issuance of Istisna's Sukuk. This article, while introducing the work in general, examines and critiques it from the formal and content aspects. The findings of this paper show that although it provides a methodical method for examining the possibility of using Sukuk in different sectors of the economy and is somewhat of a practical effect, it has both formal and content characteristics. There are also some drawbacks such as lack of literary and scientific editing of the work, the weakness in the logical order and sequence of content, and the topics do not have the necessary strength. Ignoring first-hand sources and confusion in how to refer are other drawbacks of this work. In this work, the author does not mention the role of the Central Bank of Iran and the impact of its policies, especially its role in the regulatory pricing of Sukuk. This is one of the most important reasons why various economic sectors do not welcome Sukuk as an Islamic financing tool.

In the present article, the book “An Introduction to the Economics of Sanction: The Theoretical Foundations and the History of Sanctions in the World and in Iran” by Mehdi Toghyani et al. was reviewed. This paper consists of four parts, namely the introduction, presentation and description of this work, content evaluation, conclusion and suggestions. The results of this article show that this book is extremely flawed with regards to format and technicality, literary editing, referencing and citations. Though it is well-written, transparent and suitably segmented regarding its chapters, the book lacks internal consistency. Its reasoning, analysis, and scientific explanations are dissatisfying. Thus, this book has no academic value as a teaching resource.
