Inhaltsangabe

In the struggle against terrorism post 9/11, the United States developed rendition as an instrument of policy. Rendition became associated with the use of coercive interrogation techniques that often crossed the threshold of torture, in violation of international standards to which successive American administrations committed themselves. To a degree yet to be fully established, Britain was implicated in that policy.

Account Rendered is an analysis of the facts and history of rendition intended to get to the truth and to ensure that the United Kingdom will not be involved in extraordinary rendition in the future.

Roger Gough, Stuart McCracken, and Andrew Tyrie are British politicians with inside access to documents pertaining to the role of the United Kingdom and United States in carrying out extraordinary rendition.
