Iran and the Nuclear Question: History and Evolutionary Trajectory: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Iran and the Nuclear Question: History and Evolutionary Trajectory" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Spanning over a period of more than five decades since its inception, Irans nuclear programme is the most protracted civilian nuclear program in the world and one of the most politicized projects in Irans history.

Iran and the Nuclear Question offers a historiographical portrait of Irans early nuclear program under Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi. Using declassified archival material, the book thematically chronicles the programs genesis, evolutionary trajectory, and devolution from the 1950s through to the 1970s. It also catalogues the Revolutionary Irans early socialization into the atom and the Islamic Republics gradual change of heart about nuclear energy that culminated in the incremental resuscitation of the Shahs nuclear enterprise in the 1980s.

As the first archive-based account of one of the most long-lasting and capital-intensive nuclear enterprises during the Cold War, Iran and the Nuclear Question is a valuable resource for students and scholars of Iranian, Middle East and Security Studies. Written in a clear and accessible format, it will also appeal to those with a more general interest in Iran and its nuclear journey.

This is a major contribution relying on in depth archival documents It - photo 1

This is a major contribution, relying on in depth archival documents. It successfully unpacks and catalogues Irans nuclear program in its formative years under the Shahs reign. It reveals heretofore unknown dynamics, including the influence exerted by the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran and its defiant first president, Akbar Etemad, on the non-proliferation policy debates in the United States and on the transfer of civilian nuclear know-how to the have-nots within the NPT regime. This is a serious addition to scholarship on nuclear proliferation literature and a definitive statement on the history of Irans nuclear program. Highly recommended.

Nasser Hadian , University of Tehran

One of the most thorough analyses of the history of one of the most contentious international conflicts of our age. Homayounvash masterfully digs deeper into the history of the Iranian nuclear program than any other scholar before him, shedding much needed light on this secretive endeavor that almost brought the US and Iran to war.

Trita Parsi , Founder and current president of the National Iranian American Council

Irans nuclear program has been the target of much misinformation, hype and outright distortion for more than a decade. In his contribution to the subject, Homayounvash provides a corrective and enables the reader to put the issue in its proper historical and political context. Drawing from original sources in Persian language and by tapping into previously seldom used archival material in English, he presents an original analysis that sheds a new light on the subject. As such, it should be of interest to students, scholars and policy makers alike. The book is a major contribution to our understanding of Irans nuclear program and the issues surrounding its evolution in the last sixty years. This is a must read for those interested in Middle East politics as well as the issues surrounding nuclear proliferation and international security. Homayounvashs poignant analysis of Iranian case study, and the factors that made its peaceful resolution possible, bears significant lessons in dealing with similar situations in other parts of the developing world.

Manochehr Dorraj , Professor of International Affairs, Texas Christian University, USA

Dr. Mohamad Homayounvash has written a well-researched, well-written, well-argued and comprehensive historiography about the genesis and evolution of Irans controversial nuclear program. What distinguishes this book from many similar works is that it relies extensively on archival research in the United States as well as on the Persian language sources. Anyone interested in understanding and appreciating the nature and dynamics of Irans nuclear program must surely read this factually and analytically rich book.

Mohsen M. Milani , Executive Director at USF World Center for Strategic & Diplomatic Studies and Professor for Government & International Affairs, University of South Florida
