Drawing on years of reporting from inside Iran, Filkins paints a vivid picture of a country on the brink of nuclear breakout. He reveals the inner workings of Iran's nuclear program, the key players involved, and the dangerous brinkmanship that has brought the world to the edge of war.

Filkins also provides a sobering assessment of the options available to the United States and its allies. He argues that military action is a last resort, and that diplomacy and sanctions are the only way to prevent a catastrophic conflict.

But time is running out. Iran's nuclear program is rapidly advancing, and the window for diplomatic action is closing. Filkins warns that if the United States and its allies fail to act, the consequences will be devastating.

The New Iraq is an essential read for anyone who wants to understand the most pressing threat to global security today. Filkins's reporting is both authoritative and accessible, and his insights are invaluable.
