Abstract:
"Based on eight years of covering the Iran nuclear issue and new research and interviews with participants, Porter reconstructs the history of Iran's nuclear program and shows how the United States and Israel used the accusation about Iran's desire for nuclear weapons to try to pressure Tehran to give up its right to have nuclear power for peaceful purposes"--Back cover.
