Sosok Mahbub Djunaidi memang tak pernah habis untuk dibahas. Pria Betawi keturunan Banten-Jerman ini dikenal sebagai pribadi yang unik. Karyanya mencerminkan karakter sejatinya. Jalan pikirannya sulit ditebak, humornya kadang membuat kita terhenyak, dan kebebasan ekspresinya dalam karya tulis masih sulit ditandingi oleh penulis-penulis saat ini. Ia memandang dunia dalam versinya sendiri dan versi itu dibagikan pada khalayak umum lewat karya tulisnya. Lewat memoar ini, pembaca diajak lebih dekat lagi dengan Pak Mahbub. Bagaimana kesehariannya di tengah keluarga, bagaimana ia memotret fenomena di sekitarnya untuk dijadikan bahan tulisan yang ditunggu oleh banyak penggemarnya. Memoar ini sedikit banyak menggambarkan pribadi Mahbub yang mengispirasi generasi setelahnya. Bukan untuk mendapatkan ‘Mahbub’ yang baru, tetapi bagaimana menggali potensi diri sendiri dari pribadi yang menginspirasi ini. Karakter Mahbub yang egaliter, non-diskriminatif, membongkar sekat perbedaan suku-agama-ras, menjadi amatan yang menarik. Ia mewakili figur yang telah, sedang, dan akan dibutuhkan dalam ikhtiar luhur dalam merawat keutuhan Indonesia.

This timely and original handbook paves the way to success in plant-based drug development, systematically addressing the issues facing a pharmaceutical scientist who wants to turn a plant compound into a safe and effective drug. Plant pharmacologists from around the world demonstrate the potentials and pitfalls involved, with many of the studies and experiments reported here published for the first time. The result is a valuable source of information unavailable elsewhere.
The most significant challenge to the post-Cold War international order is the growing power of ambitious states opposed to the West. Iran, Russia and China each view the global structure through the prism of historical experience. Rejecting the universality of Western liberal values, these states and their governments each consider the relative decline of Western economic hegemony as an opportunity. Yet cooperation between them remains fragmentary. The end of Western sanctions and the Iranian nuclear deal; the Syrian conflict; new institutions in Central and East Asia: in all these areas and beyond, the potential for unity or divergence is striking. In this new and comprehensive study, Ariane Tabatabai and Dina Esfandiary address the substance of this `triple axis' in the realms of energy, trade, and military security. In particular they scrutinise Iran-Russia and the often overlooked field of Iran-China relations. Their argument - that interactions between the three will shape the world stage for decades to come - will be of interest to anyone looking to understand the contemporary international security puzzle.
This study presents an analysis of US-Iranian relations in the twentieth century, with particular attention to the crisis over nationalization of British oil interests at midcentury. As such, it focuses on the career of Muhammad Musaddiq, who struggled during those years to free his country from foreign influence, and whose memory continued to haunt bilateral relations with the United States up to the Iranian revolution. Throughout, it examines Anglo-American views of Iranians (and by implication of other non-Westerners) which affected - and still affect - the conduct of international relations.
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to national AIDS programmes and partners on the use of indicators to measure and report on the country response. The 2016 United Nations Political Declaration on Ending AIDS, adopted at the United Nations General Assembly High-Level Meeting on AIDS in June 2016, mandated UNAIDS to support countries in reporting on the commitments in the Political Declaration. The Political Declaration on Ending AIDS built on three previous political declarations: the 2001 Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS, the 2006 Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS and the 2011 Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS.
In this book, the authors explore the controversial Iranian nuclear programme through the conceptual lens of nuclear hedging. In 2002, revelations regarding undeclared nuclear facilities thrust Iran’s nuclear activities under the spotlight and prompted concerns that Tehran was pursuing nuclear weapons. Iran has always denied nuclear weapons aspirations, yet it cannot be disputed that the Islamic Republic has gone well beyond what is required for a civil nuclear programme based on energy production and scientific research. What, then, is the nature and significance of Iran's nuclear behaviour? Does it form part of a coherent strategy? What can Iran's actions in the nuclear field tell us about Tehran's intentions? And what does the Iranian case teach us about proliferation behaviour more generally? This book addresses these questions by exploring the nature of nuclear hedging and how this approach might be identified, before applying this logic to the Iranian case. It provides fresh insights into the inherently opaque area of nuclear proliferation and a more nuanced interpretation of the Iranian nuclear challenge.
