Dr. Rafie Hamidpour has taught at the college level, compiled twelve books, sixty publications, and has received nine certificates of registration from the Library of Congress. He also holds several patent registrations in the U. S. and Canada. But the greatest of all his accomplishments are the relationships with his family and friends. After living in the United States for the past twenty-nine years, the author's understanding of the American people and culture inspired his previous four books in the series, Persia with Love: The Land, Persia with Love: The Events, Persia with Love: Cultures, Tradition, Language, and Persia with Love: The Scholars. This account of Persian history is dedicated to the Persian people willing to sacrifice their own comfort for the greater good of their family and loved ones. Throughout history, the strength of mankind has been emphasized through collective culture. A collective mindset and lifestyle has evolved societies to place greater emphasis on humanity, and less on monetary value. Since the age of industry, many of these concepts have been forgotten as people strive for a different type of success. Money, property, and material possessions have replaced the seemingly obsolescent barometers of the past. The change has come from the focus of these intentions and the source of these desires. Hope lies in the occurrence of the frequently documented random acts of kindness that members of society take, when acts benefit the doer more than the receiver. These are the ones who authenticate the human morals and ideas that mankind once thrived on and implemented.
