In the analytical book of "Both Eastern and Western" that published in August this year, Afshin Matin Asgari invite the readers to reconsider the Iranian enlightenment history and challenge the prevailing stereotypes about Iranian and presumed history of the Middle East, then subsequently offers a new dimension in this regard.
