Description
Praise

Iran and the United States are on a collision course. David Barsamian presents the perspectives of four experts on Iran who discuss the 1953 CIA coup and the rise of the Islamic regime, Iran’s internal dynamics and competing forces, relations with Iraq and Afghanistan, and the consequences of US policy.

Ervand Abrahamian authored Iran Between Two Revolutions.

Noam Chomsky’s work includes Failed States.

Nahid Mozaffari edited the The PEN Anthology of Contemporary Iranian Literature.

David Barsamian has collaborated on Imperial Ambitions with Noam Chomsky and Original Zinn with Howard Zinn.

"This slim book is heavy with historical and cultural background that doesn't often find its way into news accounts; it's a great primer on a simmering conflict."—Publishers Weekly
"Insightful, timely, and laced with rich historical perspective, Targeting Iran presents a bracing exploration of Iran's current place in the world, and its tangled relationship with the West. These fascinating interviews capture Iran’s complexity and illuminate the morning’s headlines."—Azadeh Moaveni, author of Lipstick Jihad: A Memoir of Growing Up Iranian in America And American in Iran
