Hardback. Etat : Very Good. In the dark days immediately after 9/11, the CIA turned to Dr. James Mitchell to help craft an interrogation program designed to elicit intelligence from just-captured top al-Qa'ida leaders and terror suspects. A civilian contractor who had spent years training U.S. military members to resist interrogation should they be captured, Mitchell, aware of the urgent need to prevent impending catastrophic attacks, worked with the CIA to implement enhanced interrogation techniques--which included waterboarding. In Enhanced Interrogation, Mitchell now offers a first-person account of the EIT program, providing a contribution to our historical understanding of one of the most controversial elements of America's ongoing war on terror. Readers will follow him inside the secretive black sites and cells of terrorists and terror suspects where he personally applied enhanced interrogation techniques. Mitchell personally questioned thirteen of the most senior high-value detainees in U.S. custody, including Abu Zubaydah; Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, the amir or commander of the USS Cole bombing; and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind behind the September 11, 2001, terror attacks--obtaining information that he maintains remains essential to winning the war against al-Qa'ida and informing our strategy to defeat ISIS and all of radical Islam. From the interrogation program's earliest moments to its darkest hours, Mitchell also lifts the curtain on its immediate effects, the controversy surrounding its methods, and its downfall. He shares his view that EIT, when applied correctly, were useful in drawing detainees to cooperate, and that, when applied incorrectly, they were counter-productive. He also chronicles what it is like to undertake a several-years-long critical mission at the request of the government only to be hounded for nearly a decade afterward by congressional investigations and Justice Department prosecutors. Gripping in its detail and deeply illuminating, Enhanced Interrogation argues that it is necessary for America to take strong measures to defend itself from its enemies and that the country is less safe now without them than it was before 9/11. …

Cartoné BB. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : Nuevo. 1. C\nlinical research is sometimes thought of as a dry and somewhat\narcane pursuit.\nNot so, assert the authors of Elements of Clinical Research in Psychiatry. The authors, all actively engaged in clinical research, bring the topic to life by combining a boundless enthusiasm for their chosen field with a depth of knowledge rarely seen in the literature. They show that clinical research can be rewarding not only because the research results contribute to improving the welfare of psychiatric patients, but also because the research process itself is exciting.\nArguably the definitive guidebook on clinical psychiatric research, this volume covers everything from starting a career to measurement and assessment methods, and from statistics to the use of human subjects (including interacting with the Institutional Review Board), as well as related ethics and misconduct issues. The book provides a road map for those seeking research support in the United States (more than 90% is funded via NIH), detailing how to write grants from the ground up. The authors complete their discussion with step-by-step instructions on writing journal articles, peer-reviewing manuscripts, and making scientific presentations. Carefully chosen appendixes provide readers with additional information they can use right away, augmented by a detailed index and reference list.\nAnyone considering clinical psychiatric research as a career will find in this eminently practical volume the single source they need.\nPracticing psychiatrists interested in specific areas of clinical research, such as human subjects or biomedical ethics, will also find much of interest here. Replete with useful information, these stimulating discussions provide the building blocks for embarking upon-and enhancinga successful career in clinical psychiatric research. 440 gr. Libros.…
