Shadows in the Desert
The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Persia was once a superpower on par with the rival empires of Greece and Rome, but its history has been forgotten in the West. Dr. Kaveh Farrokh's new book explains how the art, architecture, religion, technology, and scholarship of Persia was spread throughout the ancient world, and highlights areas where its influence can still be seen today.
