Summary
"This is the most carefully documented and comprehensive account to be published on the consequences of international intervention in Iraq during the 1990s. Sarah Graham-Brown's account follows the intricacies of international policy on Iraq during this time, discussing the background events of the 1970s and 1980s and culminating in the US and British air actions in early 1999. She examines not only the record of intervention but also the complicated political context that has shaped international policy and the Iraqi response to it." "The importance of the book - which will interest general readers, Middle East specialists and students of International Relations alike - lies in the author's explanation of issues which have made events seem so unpredictable."--Jacket.
