From New York Review Books
 | The Secret Way To War An award-winning investigative journalist evaluates the controversial American and British stratagem for the Iraq war. |
 | Torture and Truth Read together, these memos and reports should make us confront, as a democratic society, the urgent questions that Mark Danner poses in this book, and that remain unanswered: Does fighting a "new kind of war" on terror justify torture? Who will we hold responsible for deciding to pursue such a policy, and what will be the moral and political costs to the country? |
