Sounds like it's going to be a great read. I'm glad she took the time to create this book so that others can learn about Iran and what is happening there.

I am listening to the interview right now. I am so inspired by Shirin Ebadi (and Shirin Ershadi, her interpreter who is also a human rights lawyer in LA -- they went to law school together in Iran).
