NR‘Do No Harm’ is an abiding principal of psychiatry. It is abandoned time after time in this shocking, utterly compelling exploration of the profession’s collusion with state sponsored torture over the past 70 years.

Experts, victims and families provide chapter and verse on fundamental violations of human rights.
