Abstract:
Following a brief historical account of the initial difficulties of
introducing modern sciences, especially the Western art of independent
scientific inquiry, into Iran, using data obtained from the ISI
(http://access.isiproducts.com/trials) an attempt is made to analyze the
apparent present successes of Iranian scientists on the international
science market. Using the corresponding ISI data of the publications (1990-
2003) of 24 selected young chemistry Ph.D. graduates and present faculty
members at various internal academia, a quantitative and qualitative
assessment (www.geocities.com/iipopescu) of their achievements has been
attempted and the results related to the strengths and weaknesses of the
present science policy of the country.
