"Shah’s extensive archival research is really the treasure of The Production of Modernization. He has unearthed and smartly contextualized dozens of fascinating documents that help to frame not only Daniel Lerner’s career but wider currents in Cold War social science that Lerner reflected. I can’t emphasize enough how impressive is the author’s close, almost obsessive reading of the archival material. The Production of Modernization makes a genuine contribution to scholarship." -Jefferson Pooley, Assistant Professor of Media and Communication at Muhlenberg College
