Summary "This book provides new insights into the special relationship and the Anglo-Iranian oil crisis. It analyses the interplay of British and American policies at the global, Middle Eastern and Iranian levels, and explores the impact on national policy of the oil majors. It also develops conclusions that challenge ideas of postwar US hegemony within the Western Alliance and traditional realist and Cold War interpretations of international relations."--BOOK JACKET
