Summary:	"Dr. Bloche discusses physicians' involvement in torturing detainees in the United States during the War on Terror. Professional ethics and involment in torturing detainees are at odds, and Bloche discusses the development of this relationship during the George W. Bush administration. Bloche shows that physicians were involved in developing tortures, such as sleep deprivation, and assisting with professional advice concerning the "torture memos."
