Reset: Iran, Turkey, and America's Future - Geopolitical Analysis Book on Middle East Relations & US Foreign Policy | Great for Political Science Students, Policy Makers & International Relations Enthusiasts

I recommend this book hihgly to anyone who doesn't know what the fuss with Iran is about and why Turkey is considered a unique system in its geography and why America is so heavily invested in Israel and where all the anti-American dissent is coming from in the Middle East. If you are like me and confused, yet not convinced by mainstream media and want to add 2 and 2 together to see HOW things got here, this is the book for you. It offers a clear, crisp history of all three countries and their relationships with each other. These are major players in the Middle East, which has been an open wound for a while now, affecting every country in different ways and the book shows you why it is important for them to band up together against much more serious threats. A lot of people called the solutions 'naive' but I don't feel that way at all - history shows us that things can swing this or that way very fast for nations and that people have a very short term memory. The country that enjoyed immense friendship with Iran not too long ago seems oblivious to it now and considers it an archenemy. Why can't things reset and revert again? It sounds very possible to me with the right people in the right places and the world is certainly changing fast enough to make it hopeful. Also, the last chapter might as well have been written just last week - it eerily predicts the wave of democracy and anti-government movement that is happening right now in the Middle East, which proves that it is not making far-fetched, mythical assumptions and has a lot to offer to the curious mind. it isn't too long and overwhelming either, a good, fun read with a lot to learn from.
