This book explores America's decline and Iran's rise in the Middle East since 9/11, tracing their strategic rivalry across Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and beyond. Afshon Ostovar examines how this contest evolved into a broader regional and global struggle, drawing in powers like Russia and China, and reflecting the fractures of an emerging multipolar world.
