Ten years ago, Scott Anderson's New York Times Magazine project, Fractured Lands, traced the lives of six people across the Middle East as war, dictatorship and the Arab Spring transformed the region. His latest book, "King of Kings," examines the fall of Iran's last Shah in 1978 and the Islamic Revolution that followed and still shapes Iran today. Anderson joined Geoff Bennett to discuss more.
