Chapter One- Introduction -- Chapter Two- Sunni, Shia, Kurd: A Brief History of Islamism in Kurdistan -- Chapter Three- The Muftis of Iranian Kurdistan and the Dawning of an Activist -- Chapter Four- Prison under the Pahlavi Regime, and the Lead-Up to Revolution -- Chapter Five- Revolution, Kurdistan, and the Maktab Quran Movement -- Chapter Six- Letters from Prison: The Legacy of a Progressive Islam of Nonviolence -- Chapter Seven- Ethnic and Religious Implications in the Greater Middle East.

Amidst changing notions of religion and identity in the modern Middle East, this book uncovers the hidden story of Ahmad Moftizadeh, the nonviolent religious leader of Iran’s Kurds during the Iranian Revolution. The characters of Ayatollah Khomeini and a number of other prominent revolutionaries surface through never before heard first-hand accounts of that era’s events. The author further surveys the underlying causes of conflict and extremism today by placing this dramatic biography in the context of a rapidly-evolving region after the First World War. The author’s coverage of some of the twentieth century Middle East’s most defining events leads him to powerful policy arguments for a region in turmoil.
