A Most Remarkable Man: The Life and Legacy of Daniel C. Jordan: Musician, Philosopher, Psychologist, Educator

A new biography on the life of Daniel C. Jordan that provides an overview of the Bahá’í Faith, which is foundational to understanding his desire to create an educational system to empower people to realize their society changing potential.

Combining a collection of his articles and an examination of his life, Massoth examines his journey from teenage atheist to his introduction to the Baha’i Faith at University of Wyoming to his life as a professional musician, and later Rhodes Scholar, educator and member of the National Spiritual Assembly of the United States whose work influenced deepening and instructional materials still used by the National Office.

The work includes thirteen articles Jordan wrote on topics such as the Bahá’í solution, the cause of poverty, and the psycho-spiritual approach to self-actualization, the breakdown of civilization, and new educational model for developing human potential called the Anisa Model.

This is the first of its kind work to highlight the extraordinary life and work of a remarkable man once one of the best known Baha’is outside of the Faith.
