Not the greatest insight to the injustices occurring in Iran

The author has written several books on her hardships in Iran, but this one seems to be more of a law-oriented book. As a lawyer and human rights activist, Shirin Ebadi suffered at the hands of Iranian secret police and government officials. The book focuses mostly on her plight, but doesn't give a broad enough overview of the issues in Iran. Even then, her own story is not as interesting as I hoped.
