It recognizes the perpetual presence of the demons, the forces of the Evil Spirit –forces that should be fought through law-abiding conduct. In spite of its formidable textual problems, the commentary provides an invaluable quarry for the rules of the Zoroastrian community through its citation of regulations for the conduct of its members. Many topics are covered, from jurisprudence to penalties, procedures for dealing with pollution, purification, and arrangements for funerals. Viewed together, they provide the reader with an exquisite interlace of a community’s concerns.Iran studies ;Volume 9.295/.82Moazami Mahnaz1581982MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791182203321Wrestling with the demons of the Pahlavi Widewdad3863916UNINA02288nas 2200613-a 450 991013788640332120241221110507.0(CKB)110978977275210(CONSER)---89644234-(MiFhGG)5PRC(EXLCZ)9911097897727521019810302a19689999 --- aengtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierASHRAE transactionsNew York American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers©1968-1 online resourceRefereed/Peer-reviewedPrint version: ASHRAE transactions. 0001-2505 (DLC) 89644234 (OCoLC)7182738 American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers transactionsASHRAE TRANSASHRAE trans.HeatingCongressesRefrigeration and refrigerating machineryCongressesAir conditioningCongressesChauffageAssociationsRéfrigération et appareils frigorifiquesAssociationsRéfrigération et appareils frigorifiquesCongrèsClimatisationCongrèsAir conditioningfast(OCoLC)fst00802264Heatingfast(OCoLC)fst00954023Refrigeration and refrigerating machineryfast(OCoLC)fst01092714Conference papers and proceedings.fastConference papers and proceedings.lcgftPeriodicals.lcgftHeatingRefrigeration and refrigerating machineryAir conditioningChauffageAssociations.Réfrigération et appareils frigorifiquesAssociations.Réfrigération et appareils frigorifiquesClimatisationAir conditioning.Heating.Refrigeration and refrigerating machinery.621American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers.JOURNAL9910137886403321exl_impl conversionASHRAE transactions800107UNINA02053oas 2200865 a 450 991014632530332120251105213014.01687-8205(OCoLC)243406560(CONSER) 2008204066(CKB)1000000000435952(TW-Airiti)jkey=P20160519003(MiFhGG)3UHI(MiAaPQ)237777(DE-599)ZDB2495098-1(EXLCZ)99100000000043595220080811a20099999 sy engtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierJournal of toxicology[Cairo, Egypt] Hindawi Pub.
