Torture: Persuasion at its Most Gruesome

If this was researched then the author never left the Tower of London , nothing of modern day torture whether from the Nazi regime known for inflicting atrocities to the Balkans, breast gouging, breast pressing, water boarding and stress positions are omitted, even historical barbarity such as the Spanish donkey taking its origins from medieval times! So if its basic well publicized stuff buy it if not.

A very good study of medieval retribution! The author has fully researched the facts and I enjoyed it very much.

What possessed mankind to come up with these activities!!!!
