Robin Wright has reported from over 120 countries for many leading news organizations, but her perceptive coverage of Iran has garnered her the most respect and praise among her colleagues. In The Last Great Revolution, Wright meticulously describes the ongoing transformation of society, politics and religion that ranges from the empowerment of women to the blossoming of a movie industry and an independent press. She demonstrates why Iran's Islamic revolution equals the French and Russian revolutions in new ideas and impact, while standing alone as "the last great revolution" of the modern era.

revolution has witnessed unprecedented political and social changes that are
transforming one of the world's oldest civilizations - with and impact far
beyond its borders. Robin Wright, renowned journalist and Mideast expert, takes
us inside Iranian society to illustrate the new women's rights movement, the
birth of an internationally acclaimed film industry, the evolution of ideas on
marriage and sex, the rise of a new generation of young people, and the radical
reforms within the religion itself that blend Islamic tenets with democratic
ideals. Comprehensive and meticulously observed, Wright's account of the last
two decades of Iranian history provides insight into the lives of the people,
influential figures, and political leaders in present-day Iran and raises
fascinating questions about the evolving legacy of 'the last great
revolution.'"
