The Doctor of fly, authored by Fatemeh Dehghan Niri, presents the memoirs of Dr. Mohammad-Taqi Khorsandi Ashtiani, Professor Emeritus and a subspecialist in Otolaryngology at Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Compiled within the framework of oral history, the work recounts different stages of his life—from childhood and years of study at home and abroad to his devoted and memorable presence in the Sacred Defense years and the period that followed. Among the most documentary and compelling features of oral history works is invariably the photo album, which breathes life into the narratives of the book. In the following pages, you are invited to view the photographs and archival documents appended to The Flying Doctor, which capture enduring moments from his years of medical service, steadfastness, and presence in operational zones.
