Professor Dr. Rateb Al-Saud has published a book titled "Educational Policies in Arab Countries: Concepts and Perspectives." This book delves into the realm of educational policies, a subject of great interest to researchers, particularly in the Arab world. However, the magnitude of challenges, the depth of problems, and the increasing pressures to address these challenges have made educational policies a subject of significant importance. This book, "Educational Policies in Arab Countries: Concepts and Perspectives," is intended for specialized readers in the Arab world, aiming to provide them with in-depth knowledge about educational policies, how they are formulated, the forces (official and unofficial) that shape them, methods of analysis, the role of education in official Arab discourse, the intersection of education and politics, examples of educational policies in some advanced countries, and the formation of a future vision for educational policies in the Arab world.

This book represents a new and qualitative addition to the field of educational management and leadership, a field that Dr. Al-Saud has been actively building for decades, drawing from his extensive expertise in public administration, educational policies, and educational leadership. His practical experience in educational leadership spans nearly five decades, starting as the principal of a high school in the field of general education and progressing through various administrative positions in higher education. His journey also includes serving as a member of the Education and Higher Education Committee in the Twelfth Jordanian Parliament, the Twenty-Third Jordanian Senate, and culminated in his role as Minister of Higher Education. These administrative experiences, combined with his academic teaching experience across the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, as well as his supervision of over 130 doctoral dissertations at seven prestigious Arab universities, have enriched the content of this book.

The book provides readers with an in-depth understanding of educational policies, their formulation, the forces (official and unofficial) that shape them, methods of analysis, the role of education in official Arab discourse, the intersection of education and politics, an overview of educational policies in Arab countries, and a prospective outlook on the future of educational policies in Arab countries in general.
