The research method is one of the fundamental courses that has been grown well in recent decades and has been well received; but unfortunately, despite the emphasis today on the research method and its proper application in various fields of science, we are witnessing less attention to this issue and its methods and principles in student research. Since most universities focus on research and research programs, they try to increase the student's awareness and knowledge of research methods in specialized fields. The book Concise of the Approach to Scientific Research on Education and Anthropology written by Dr Saif al-Islam has tried to explain the method of scientific research and the principles of dissertation writing to students. In the present study, this book has been reviewed and criticized with a descriptive-analytical method and has enumerated some of its advantages and shortcomings. Based on the findings of the current study, the author's ability to explain the content, coherence and order of topics, emphasizing the need to use a computer in scientific research, and observing writing marks are among the most important strengths of the book. However, lack of attention to in-text citations, lack of use of sources, and lack of comprehensiveness of some content and lack of explanation of the difference between methodology and research methods are the shortcomings of the book.

Translation is one of the most important tools for knowledge transfer, especially for the academic community, so translation of a book like its original version has a special value and importance. One of the most valuable and academic books is "Microeconomic Analysis" which is written by Hal.R Varian which is one of the top scientific sources of microeconomics. Ney Publishing has published this book which is translated by Mr. Reza Hosseini and now it is one of the educational resources of microeconomics in postgraduate studies in Iranian universities.

In the economics of the public sector, the presence of the government in the economy is studied from two perspectives of efficiency and justice. This section of economics seeks to provide a framework for explaining whether government should intervene in the economy. It also answers the question of how far the government should play a role in the economy. In the absence of the government, can a market mechanism produce favorable results? Is the availability of appropriate and comprehensive teaching resources a prerequisite for success and high quality education? Efforts to print textbooks in the sector of public economics are necessary, essential, and appreciable. The book of Economics of Public Sector, written by Yadollah Dadgar, is a commendable effort in this field and an endeavor to compensate for the shortage of appropriate teaching resources in economics of the public sector. It has many advantages and strengths, but there are some shortcomings which their elimination can add to the richness of the book's topics. The purpose of this article is to review and evaluate the book and express its strengths and weaknesses in order to increase the efficiency of the book in question.
