Editorial Reviews

Review

`this is an interesting paper on an important subject, with arguments presented in a clear and comprehensive manner. It deserves a wide readership.' Asian Affairs, June 1997

It remains an excellent analysis of the underlying factors which have for so long inserted uncertainty into Iranian-Saudi relations, as well as providing an authoritative review of these relations since the Iranian revolution to the mid-1990s. British Society for Middle Eastern Studies, Louise Haysey, 1999
