Welcome to my world.
I am a PhD in mathematics and am teaching at Yeshivat Ramaz.
I am also interested in Middle East studies. I am posting some of the articles I have published elsewhere, with some updating (a process I will continue.) I invite you to read them and to send me your comments. They can be accessed through my Middle East history resume (see below). The first volume of my translation of Ahmad Kasravi's History of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution has just come out, with two more volumes on the way. (See this interview with Deutche Welle and my appearance on Voice of America.) See also an online copy of an article on Google Scholars.
I have posted my math resume and
my Middle East history resume so that you can learn a little more about me.
Meantime, if you want to locate me, click onto my
schedule.
