About This Item
Iran, 1981. Fifth Edition. Hardcover. Good. Black hardcover with gilt titles, no indication of publisher, although there is a brief closing statement on the importance of the publication, signed, "the Publishers." A good copy, but with rounding at the corners and some shelfwear to the board edges. The interior is clean and unmarked in a solid binding, lacking tightness. 253 pp., indexed, a lengthy preface by Nasr indicates this as a step toward making Shiite beliefs more accessible to western, English speaking audiences. Difficult to find in hardcover.
