Now readers can have at their fingertips unbiased, up-to-date, must-know details straight from one of the most trusted sources of information around the globe. The first book in the series, Iran, gives readers the necessary background to understand important, ongoing developments in the Middle East's most volatile nation. With President Bush's second term inaugural speech signaling a devotion to the spread of democracy in the Middle East, international attention is turning to the White House's policy toward Iran. With entries ranging from Afghanistan and America to Women and Westernization, this balanced briefing examines Iran's current political and cultural climate as the country threatens to become the new focus of America's foreign policy.
In his January 2002 state of the union address, President Bush broadened the War on Terror by declaring that nations attempting to produce weapons of mass destruction were part of the world-wide threat. He s pecifically named Iraq, Iran, and North Korea as an axis of evil developing nuclear, chemical, or biological weaponry, and he challen ged other governments to confront these states as well. This up-to-date resource examines Iran's historical, cultural, and political landscape from the Constitutional Revolution to Weapons of Mass Destruction. Explan atory passages on such leaders and historical events as Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and the Iran-Contra affair place current ongoing developments into the broader context of the Muslim world, the War on Terror, and the push for democratic reform. "Iran includes photos, maps, and brief, insightful essays on important relevant, issues by authors like Strobe Talbott.
