<br/><br/> Culture Smart! Iran takes you beyond the clich�es to show how life in Iran really is and how you can feel comfortable in its society. It offers insights into a country full of surprises. Despite Iran&#x92;s deep commitment to Islam, the pre-Islamic Zoroastrian past is still part of everyday culture. Its language, Farsi, shares linguistic roots with English and French. It is a country where one of the more genuine democracies in the Middle East is overlaid by an unelected theocracy. And where &#x93;no thank you&#x94; really does sometimes mean &#x93;yes please.&#x94; If nothing else, this entrancing, beautiful, and sometimes infuriating place is a country whose inhabitants genuinely wish visitors Khosh amadi!&#x97;Welcome! --Publisher
