Beschreibung:
This book is a fascinating account of a number of criminal cases in theUnited States and in the United Kingdom, some of which resulted inwrong convictions. The book is part narrative, part analysis. The analysis,in particular the demolition of the reputation of Whittaker Chambers,ex-spyand idol of many Americans (he was awarded the Presidential Medal ofFreedom) will arouse debate and rethinking of the real lessons of the cases. The British cases will shock the complacency of many British people. Bothparts are relevant to the current debate on how to deal with Islamic terrorists,whose fanaticism recalls that of the IRA and supporters of Communism. Thebook includes an analysis of Communism and the way in which its supportersmanipulate fact for their own ends.
