Crises in the Contemporary Persian Gulf [Hardcover]

This work addresses the main strategic issues in today's Persian Gulf, a region that could easily produce a crisis that would encourage international political and economic involvement. Topics discussed include: strategic balances, modernization, internal stability, and weapons of mass destruction.This volume is particularly timely since it was published after the September 11 attacks but before Washington singled out Iraq as a prime violator of the global order...Highly recommended
