Iran is not treated primarily as a problem to be dealt with by the United States and its friends. There is an effort to understand not only the concerns and policies of the United States and its allies, but also to understand Iranian concerns and policy. Thus, this book is better able than many others to explain the actions, reactions, and interactions of all the relevant actors and to explore the prospects for future war or peace.||Mattair provid 410 0$aGlobal security watch series. 606 $aNational security$zIran 606 $aNational security$zUnited States 606 $aNational security$zMiddle East 607 $aIran$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zIran 615 0$aNational security 615 0$aNational security 615 0$aNational security 676 $a327.55 700 $aMattair$b Thomas R$01480314 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778528403321 996 $aGlobal security watch--Iran$93696893 997 $aUNINA
