TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN:

We the undersigned, through this letter, protest your irresponsible and unscientific action by publishing and distributing of your Liz and John Soars' book, "American Headway 3",(2003), which has on page 39 replaced the Persian Gulf with the fictitious name, "Arabian Gulf".

This letter is in concern with such publication of this book by your organization, which, according to all international organizations, is fraudulent and distorted, and its publication guarantees the violation of undeniable international legal rights.

It is a proven scholarly fact that the name of the Persian Gulf is a genuine name, with historical roots, and using any fraudulent names such as the вArabian Gulfв is in fact inducing political animosity.

We did not expect Oxford University Press, as a prestigious international scientific institution, to ignore the proven obvious, and damage its own reputation on the basis of political intentions, and thus create an atmosphere of public mistrust in its content, and hurt the national pride of the millions of Persian speakers while doing so.

While announcing our disgust at such a heresy, we demand an immediate editorial review and correction of this publication by the Oxford University Press.
Sincerely,
