Reviews

Sadegh Shajari’s book on nuclear Iran represents a remarkable contribution to our understanding of what is at stake. The credibility of this book is rooted in that of its author. A trained nuclear scientist, Shajari has since the days of the Shah been directly implicated in Iranian nuclear policy. He continued his involvement in the nuclear activities of the Islamic Republic before breaking with the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran. Still preoccupied by the current situation, the author is a strong advocate for a denuclearized Middle East. -- Bernard Ravenel, French historian and co-founder of the French periodical, Confluences Mediterranean
