He has also broadcast for BBC Radio 4 and for television networks.
'In a brilliant analysis that is cogent and clear, Howard's book on the ongoing confrontation between the US and Iran could not be more timely. It also gives some stark predictions as to the possible fallout for today's troubled world and some eminently sensible answers as to what can be done to avoid another catastrophe in the Middle East. There is no better study available. A book for the layman as well as the experts, this is a must read.' - Ahmed Rashid, journalist and author of best selling ''Taliban'' and ''Jihad" 'This wonderfully topical book is as well researched as it is readable. It delves into the mystery and history that makes Iran the country it is today and shows it to be much more complex than the neo-cons and bible-belters in the United States affect to think.' - Sir David Gore-Booth, Former Middle East Director British Foreign Office 1989-92 'A deeply informed and acute study of Iran and of American policy and reactions to that country, one which is highly readable and also fair and balanced'. - The Rt Hon the Lord Gilmour of Craigmillar
