I hesitate to give this four stars, not because it doesn't deserve it simply because the 4 stars designation signifies "I really like it." More like, "I was really fascinatingly disturbed past it." Complete with copies of historical documents for reading/examination.

Buku tentang sejarah penyiksaan?
Maksudnya tentang aneka alat penyiksaan yang sering dipakai, seperti yang sering ada terlihat di film? Pasti seram nih isinya

Buku tentang sejarah penyiksaan?
Maksudnya tentang aneka alat penyiksaan yang sering dipakai, seperti yang sering ada terlihat di moving picture? Pasti seram nih isinya

Begitu pikiran saya ketika pertama kali melihat buku di iklankan di http://world wide web.bigbadwolfbooks.com/. Karena penasaran, mulainya mengunjungi situs yang memuat buku, Goodreads. Wah, bintang four.16, lumayan bagus juga. Baiklah masukan buku ini dalam daftar belanja, kebetulan salah satu teman juga meminta untuk dibelikan. Untunglah, saya bisa menemukan buku ini mengingat ternyata jumlah yang tresedia di BBW hanya sedikit (dilihat dari tingginya tumpukan saat itu).

Meski hanya berisi 64 halaman, namun buku ini padat akan kisah menyeramkan, sesuai dengan judulnya. Dimulai dari model penyiksaan dari zaman Roma yang dilakukan secara fisik hingga siksaan zaman moderen, yaitu secara psikologi.

An okay volume. There are some typos that, of course, tin be ignored. I rated this iii stars mostly because it feels similar the author is injecting some of his personal views into the work. There'due south a lot of "they may accept felt this" or "they may accept done that" without really bankroll these assumptions up. Or mayhap there's enough prove for information technology but he doesn't show it cleary? He would also comment that the Inquisition was an excuse to do sadistic acts in the guise of religious fervor. Just he would An okay book. In that location are some typos that, of form, tin be ignored. I rated this three stars mostly because it feels like the author is injecting some of his personal views into the work. There'southward a lot of "they may have felt this" or "they may have washed that" without actually backing these assumptions up. Or perhaps there'due south enough evidence for it simply he doesn't show it cleary? He would also comment that the Inquisition was an alibi to practice sadistic acts in the guise of religious fervor. But he would not brand the aforementioned comment on the Aztecs/Mayans and Egyptians who were also showcased in the book. It makes him look hostile to Christianity. ...more

Difficult to say "loved it"! Well, to me, it was an interesting read and I learned a lot, but if you take pre-teens or teens in the house, I would hide this one somewhere to avoid any unpleasant discoveries. It is understandably a pretty graphic expect at how vicious humans can be to i another! Hard to say "loved information technology"!
