Publisher Description: Farsi Persian, the official language of Iran, is spoken across the Middle East and Central Asia by a worldwide community of over 60 million people. Farsi's linguistic and literary legacy is over 2,500 years old, and continues to play a central role in Near Eastern politics, business and culture. Persian is the dominant language of Iran's international business world and a critical language to understanding the intricacies of Middle Eastern literary, historical and cultural trends.
