The best analysis of Iranian intellectuals,
By A Customer
This review is from: Iranian Intellectuals in the Twentieth Century (Paperback)
This is perhaps the most in depth and perceptive analysis of the role of intellectuals in Third World societies in general and Iran in particular. Rich in detail, based on meticulous research, and well-written, this is a good read for those with more than a passing interest inthe subject.

A Scholarly Book on Iranian Intellectual Modernity,
By A Customer
This review is from: Iranian Intellectuals in the Twentieth Century (Paperback)
This is a scholarly book (actually based on the author's doctorate thesis at Oxford) about Iran's intellectual modernity in the twentieth century. It begins with the intellectual roots of the Constitutional Revolution toward the end of the Qajar Period and ends with the 1970s -- prior to the Islamic Revolution. A sequel to this book would be Iranian Intellectuals and the West (1996) by Mehrzad Boroujerdi (also a scholarly book based on the author's doctorate thesis, and available from Amazon.com).
