Review # 2 was written on 2008-07-28 00:00:00 Caroline Dey This book is even-handed almost to a fault, presenting views both in favor of, and opposed to, the U.S. government using torture. It's grimly enlightening to read that, in one contributor's opinion, we should have a court to issue torture warrants (chapter 3),or that the methods of torture used aren't really torture (chapter 2, as in the Bush administration's line.) I didn't read all the essays in this book, and it's one that a reader can simply draw some honest opinions on. I still have to say it's tragic that we're debating whether torture is wrong.
