Matthew Alexander - How to Break a Terrorist

Amnesty International and Left Bank Books present Matthew Alexander, author of How to Break a Terrorist. Finding Abu Musab al Zarqawi, the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq, had long been the U.S. military's top priority. No brutality was spared in trying to squeeze intelligence from Zarqawi's suspected associates. But in the wake of the torture scandal at Abu Ghraib, a new breed of interrogators emerged that used innovative interrogation techniques, rather than torture, to get information from prisoners. Matthew Alexander, a former criminal investigator for the Air Force and head of the new interrogation team, was sent to Iraq for that purpose. In his fast-paced and thrilling new book, Alexander reveals the methods they used and their astounding success rate.
