""Brimming with insight and clarity, Iran and the Revolution distils six decades of Homa Katouzian's scholarship into a compelling portrait of revolution, protest, and reform in modern Iran.""--Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi, author of Revolution and its Discontents ""An incisive and well-documented overview of Iran's turbulent history from the outbreak of the Second World War, through the 1979 revolution, the rise of the Islamist theocracy, to the present--a must-read by a leading scholar of Iranian social and economic history, culture, and politics.""--Ali Banuazizi, Research Professor of Political Science, Boston College ""Homa Katouzian's unwavering dedication to the study of Iran spoils us with an engaging and accessible book that brings his theory of state-society dynamics to life through an incisive account of the making of the Iranian Revolution and its afterlife, extending to the present day.""--Elvire Corboz, author of Guardians of Shi'ism ""Drawing on a remarkably rich source base--from state archives to popular jokes--and avoiding the Westernised clichés of 'paradise lost', 'fundamentalism', and anti-modern atavism, Katouzian offers a deep history that situates 1979 within a much longer arc of state-society relations. A must-read for all students of Iran.'--Reza Zia-Ebrahimi, author of The Emergence of Iranian Nationalism
