This fabulous rags to riches story is destined to be a classic of inspirational and personal success literature. It's a long-awaited sequel to the greatest of all motivational books on personal wealth creation, The Richest Man in Babylon. A treasure for the 21st century, The Richest Man in Persia, by Brian Morgan, has been called “a fascinating roadmap to personal success with peace of mind.”Millions of people around the world have read and profited by The Richest Man in Babylon, by George S. Clason. In 1926, George Clason, from Missouri in America, issued the first of what was to become a famous series of pamphlets on financial success. He used parables set in ancient Babylon to make his points. The pamphlets were distributed by banks and insurance companies and were loved by millions of readers around the world.The most famous of these pamphlets was The Richest Man in Babylon, so this became the obvious title when a number of the parables were gathered together into a book. It has gone through many reprints and is still on best-seller lists some eight decades after George Clason first set pen to paper. Now read the story of The Richest Man in Persia. It contains “the untold wealth secrets of Persia”, as excavated from the ruins of “the wealthiest city under the sun”, Persepolis, not far from Babylon in the ancient Persian Empire, but its message is for the 21st century.Author Brian Morgan has won numerous state and national awards in journalism and a prestigious national award as an author. He has appeared on best-seller lists in the United Sates and the United Kingdom and has been translated for Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese readers. His writing has been internationally acclaimed. In the wake of the financial catastrophe that unfolded in the first years of the 21st century, the strategies in this book are timely indeed and could change the lives of millions, as The Richest Man in Babylon has done.The Richest Man in Persia (more than 38,000 words and 200 pages) was inspired by Clason's work, but embraces fresh ideas and the latest concepts in personal wealth creation through investment and business, written in a similar “parable” style and set in ancient Persia. This “sequel” covers concepts like:The personal testimony of the richest man in Persia.The 11 Codes of Riches.The nine rules of time mastery.The four basic ways of making money.The magic power of compounding and leverage.The factors that multiply the value of investments.The Seven Business Secrets of the Masters.The book opens with Alexander's conquest of Persia (thus far true history) and tells of the richest man in Persia hastily inscribing the Codes of Riches on clay tablets as Alexander marched on his city (the legend). It tells how fires set by Alexander baked the tablets and preserved them (thousands of tablets were actually preserved this way).The Richest Man in Persia has a plus factor. It does contain wealth secrets many of us crave, but it cautions that there are things money can't buy and that the highest values cannot be counted in coin.The book is a strong advocate against greed, but an equally strong advocate for seeking abundance for the good it can do - as a means to an end, not an end in itself. Money, it says, must not come at the cost of happiness. The book is full of meat and contains treasure on every page. It's a road map for the journey from rags to riches we can all help each other make, and should be on the bookshelf of every person who seeks a better life.
A richly-illustrated and important book that traces the rise and fall of one of the ancient world's largest and richest empires.
A "fresh...thrilling" (The Guardian) account of the Graeco-Persian Wars. In the fifth century B.C., a global superpower was determined to bring truth and order to what it regarded as two terrorist states. The superpower was Persia, incomparably rich in ambition, gold, and men. The terrorist states were Athens and Sparta, eccentric cities in a poor and mountainous backwater: Greece. The story of how their citizens took on the Great King of Persia, and thereby saved not only themselves but Western civilization as well, is as heart-stopping and fateful as any episode in history. Tom Holland’s brilliant study of these critical Persian Wars skillfully examines a conflict of critical importance to both ancient and modern history.
A New York Times–bestselling novel of the ancient king of Macedon and his lover by the author Hilary Mantel calls “a shining light.” The Persian Boy centers on the most tempestuous years of Alexander the Great’s life, as seen through the eyes of his lover and most faithful attendant, Bagoas. When Bagoas is very young, his father is murdered and he is sold as a slave to King Darius of Persia. Then, when Alexander conquers the land, he is given Bagoas as a gift, and the boy is besotted. This passion comes at a time when much is at stake—Alexander has two wives, conflicts are ablaze, and plots on the Macedon king’s life abound. The result is a riveting account of a great conqueror’s years of triumph and, ultimately, heartbreak. The Persian Boy is the second volume of the Novels of Alexander the Great trilogy, which also includes Fire from Heaven and Funeral Games. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Mary Renault including rare images of the author. “Mary Renault is a shining light to both historical novelists and their readers. She does not pretend the past is like the present, or that the people of ancient Greece were just like us. She shows us their strangeness; discerning, sure-footed, challenging our values, piquing our curiosity, she leads us through an alien landscape that moves and delights us.” —Hilary Mantel
Who really rules Iran today? Are the men in official positions merely puppets activated by hidden hands? How are decisions made in a system that appears so chaotic at first glance? Is the current political structure doomed to conflict? These are some of the questions that Amir Taheri addresses in this riveting and timely book. An anatomy of one of the most secretive regimes in the contemporary world, The Persian Night traces the historical, religious, cultural, and political roots of the Khomeinist revolution and analyzes the way it has grown into a pseudo-religious ideology over the past three decades. Taheri dissects a regime that has hijacked a nation of seventy million people and mobilized its resources for global “holy war” against the United States and its allies. From Khomeini’s “divine mission” to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s messianic campaign in the name of the “Hidden Imam,” Iran is on a trajectory towards war. The Persian Night looks into the actual links between the Islamic Republic and terrorist networks including al-Qaeda and Hezballah; the reality of the Iranian nuclear program; the Islamic Republic’s war-making capabilities and strategies; and the origins of the three Khomeinist phobias—women, Jews, and the United States. But as Taheri demonstrates, Khomeinism is not Iran. Today there are two competing Irans: the one manifested in the negative Khomeinist energies that have dragged the nation into its dark night; the other drawing from the long and celebrated history of Persian culture while extending a friendly hand to the West. Successive U.S. administrations, along with most European governments, have failed to understand the reality of the Khomeinist regime and at times have even aided its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction, including a nuclear arsenal. Taheri provides a set of imaginative suggestions for more effective ways of dealing with Iran.
First comprehensive collection of evidence of the relations between Athens and Persia in fifth century BC.
How can she love the king of kings without forsaking her Lord of lords? Kasia grew up in a poor Jewish home with more siblings than luxuries. But when a chance encounter forces her to the palace of Xerxes, she becomes a concubine to the richest man in the world. She alone, of all Xerxes' wives, loves the man beneath the crown. She alone, of all his wives, holds the heart of the king of kings. Traveling with Xerxes through Europe as he mounts a war against Greece, Kasia knows enemies surround her, but they re not the Spartans or Athenians. The threat lies with those close to the king who hate her people. She determines to put her trust in Jehovah even if it costs her her marriage. Years of prayers are answered when Kasia's childhood friend arrives at the palace after the war, but even as she determines to see Esther crowned in place of the bloodthirsty former queen, she knows the true battle is far from over. How far will her enemies go to see her undone? Combining the biblical account of Esther with Herodotus's Histories, Jewel of Persia is the story of a love that nearly destroys an empire . . . and the friendship that saves a nation.

Throughout its long and complex history, Iran has struggled with two warring identities—one evolving from the values, social organization, and arts of ancient Persia, the other from Islam. By examining the relationship between these two identities, The Iranians explains how the revolution of 1979 came about, why the Islamic Republic has failed, and how Iran today is on the brink of chaos. In this defining portrait of a troubled nation and the forces that shape it, Iranian history and religion become accessible to the nonspecialist. Combining impeccable scholarship with the human insight of firsthand observations, The Iranians provides vital understanding of this unique and pivotal nation. WITH A NEW AFTERWORD BY THE AUTHOR
