'With this book, Adib-Moghaddam takes his global audience into his 'School of Love'. The unique argument is steeped in powerful strokes combining philosophy, history, prophethood, art, music and poetry. What is Iran does not only offer a full survey of Iranian affairs and its global history, the book opens unlimited space for a universality of thought that generates peace, harmony and humanism.' Lubna Abid Ali, Professor of International Relations and Dean, Faculty of Contemporary Studies, National Defence University, Pakistan 'The author breaks the spell of constructed images of what Iran is and what it is not. No other book but this volume tells us that the country's presence in global history is ubiquitous and infinite beyond historically and politically projected images that are too readily available about Iran today.' Hisae Nakanishi, Professor, Graduate School of Global Studies, Doshisha University 'The vivid colours that I have chosen for the Phoenix on the cover of this book reflect the strong spirit of the author, and their speed of light is reflective of the speed and strength of his mind. The musical pieces are reflected in the rhythmic flight of the Phoenix.' Lida Sherfatmand, International Artist 'Through five musical pieces, Adib-Moghaddam offers a unique perspective on Iran's politics in the region and beyond Adib-Moghaddam skilfully links the themes of his chosen examples - the greatness of Persian history and values and their impact on human history; revolutionary motivations and sacrifice; determination to rebel against injustice and resistance - to Iranian domestic and international politics. This informative book is a must-read for those engaged with Iranian studies and interested readers wishing to understand the trajectory of Iran-US relations.' Behzad Abdollahpour, International Affairs
