This volume is the first of its kind to explore the professional field of psychology in a Middle Eastern country. Contributors discuss challenges faced in their work when operating in such a unique and multinational society. Various subfields such as clinical practice, research, industrial-organizational work as well as the place of Islam within the broader psychology context are all addressed.
