The torture memos : rationalising the unthinkable
2009
Books
The ongoing war on terror and the massive impact that it has had on the lives of citizens from London to Baghdad was justified by a wealth of legislation created by the US government. Analysing the documents held by the Office of Legal Counsel, this book demonstrates the reasoning adopted in order to justify acts of torture.
