"This is a very impressive volume. The articles tie in well together and often address similar themes within their broader categories." - Sholeh Quinn, Iranian Studies 42.5 (December 2009), 798-800
"The articles in this volume serve the twofold purpose of providing new insights into the history of the Iranian Bahai community and of discussing the role of the Bahais in the development of modern Iran." - Oliver Scharbrodt, Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies 71.3 (October 2008), 574-576
"[ An] important volume of collected papers... The often expert coverage of such major themes registered in this worthwhile volume as Zoroastrian and Jewish conversions to the Baha'i relationships with and contributions to Iranian society, and the sad and ongoing history of Iranian Babi-Baha'i persecutions and minority human rights violations offers an indispensable resource to scholars working within the fields of Iranian and Babi-Baha'i studies." - Stephen N. Lambden, University of California, Merced; Journal of the American Oriental Society 130.2 (2010), 304-306
"Although the articles of this collection primarily deal with the study of Iranian Baha'is from a sociohistorical aspect, their importance and relevance to other fields should not escape the attention of both students and scholars. Each and everyone of these eleven articles amply shows how relevant Baha'i studies could be to a range of topics and fields in the study of modern Iranian history." - Soli Shahvar, University of Haifa; The Middle East Book Review 3 (2012)
"This book is a reminder of how composite and complex Íránian society is. Knowing its history and demographic realities and the treatment of its largest religious minority are prerequisites to any serious study of, or involvement with, contemporary Írán." - Morten Bergsmo; Journal of Peace Research, vol. 45, no. 6, 2008
