FULLY UPDATED THIRD EDITION, NOW WITH NEW POSTSCRIPT BY ALI ANSARIIf you were to read only one book on presentday Iran you could not do better than this Ervand Abrahamian, Times Higher EducationFor some 40 years the Islamic Republic has resisted widespread condemnation, sanctions, and sustained attacks by Iraq in an eightyear war.
