The book explores the 3,500-year history of Zoroastrianism, from its origins among nomadic tribes to its establishment as the state religion of major Iranian empires. It highlights the faith's significant influence on Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Following the Muslim conquest of Iran, Zoroastrianism lost its political dominance but persisted as a minority religion. Despite its ancient roots, Zoroastrianism continues to thrive as a living faith today.
