The Interrogators
Author: Chris Mackey
Publisher: Little, Brown
ISBN: 0759511098
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
More than 3,000 prisoners in the war on terrorism have been captured, held, and interrogated in Afghanistan alone. But no one knows what transpired in those interactions between prisoner and interrogator -- until now. In The Interrogators, Chris Mackey, the senior interrogator at Bagram Air Base and in Kandahar, where al-Qaeda and Taliban prisoners were first detained and questioned, lifts the curtain. Soldiers specially trained in the art of interrogation went face-to-face with the enemy. These mental and psychological battles were as grueling, dramatic, and important as any in the war on terrorism. We learn how, under Mackey's command, his small group of "soldier spies" engineered a breakthrough in interrogation strategy, rewriting techniques and tactics grounded in the Cold War. Mackey reveals the tricks of the trade, and we see how his team -- four men and one woman -- responded to the pressure and the prisoners. By the time Mackey's group was finished, virtually no prisoner went unbroken.

Hawk
Author: The Author
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1462067379
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Hawk is a taut thriller that deals with the anatomy of a kidnapping. Paul Duprey, playing out his fantasy as Hawk, kidnaps Chelsea weeks before her marriage. His insistence that his love for her must be reciprocal is the visible motivation, but as the story progresses the reader is given deeper insight into the psychology of the man and the depth of the danger to both characters. Chelsea's carefully choreographed life: great job prospects; great friends; a loving fianc, changes drastically when she is hustled into Paul's car in front of her Boston apartment building. The journey away from the city into a wilderness area close to the Canadian border is scenic in content and hazardous in actions. For the reader it seems like a passage along the edge of a high precipice where one dares not look down, or in the reading sense not plunge ahead, but travel the narrative in mincing steps. Chelsea and Paul are both survivors of difficult early lives. They are flawed in ways that heighten the suspense and portend the seemingly inevitable tragedy.

Pages : 455
Book Description
This book engages with the experience of space and time in youth cultures across the world. Putting together contemporary case studies on young transnationalists, young glocals and young protesters in cities on the five continents, it analyzes new agoras and chronotopes in global cities.

The History of Evil in the Early Twentieth Century
Author: Victoria S. Harrison
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351138340
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
The fifth volume of The History of Evil covers the twentieth century from 1900 through 1950. The period saw the maturation of intellectual movements such as Pragmatism and Phenomenology, and the full emergence of several new academic disciplines; all these provided novel intellectual tools that were used to shed light on a human capacity for evil that was becoming increasingly hard to ignore. An underlying theme of this volume is the effort to reconstruct an understanding of human nature after confidence in its intrinsic goodness and moral character had been shaken by world events. The chapters in this volume cover globally relevant topics such as education, propaganda, power, oppression, and genocide, and include perspectives on evil drawn from across the world. Theological and atheistic responses to evil are also examined in the volume. This outstanding treatment of approaches to evil at a determinative period of modernity will appeal to those with interests in the intellectual history of the era, as well as to those with interests in the political, philosophical and theological movements that matured within it.
