Summary: Excellent analysis of the totalitarian mindset
Review: Jacobo Timerman has written a gripping and terrifying account of his experiences at the mercy of Argentina's Peronist regime of the late 70's. A well respected, professional journalist in Buenos Aires, he was editor of the major newspaper La Opinión until he was kidnapped by the military for publishing articles critical of their terrorist tactics. He details how as a political prisoner, and more signifigantly as a Jew, he was held and tortured by a military carried away by their own delusions and rationalizations of violence - and by their virulent anti-semitism. Timerman displays a penetrating insight into the mindset of his captors and of a society that tried to ignore what was happening. A must read.

Summary: Play with Fire
Review: This book is about him, this is not about tortures, nore the Argentina's dictadure in the seventies. He does not Know what torture is or what was be in jail in those days. He took advantage of The situacion of those days in the country to discriminate against everybody using his heritage in a very inteligent way I am not Nazi nore Marcista, I am PERONISTA. He is not an Argentinian, He is lucky to end-up with the militars and not with the Revolutionaries. This book is about Mr. Timerman religious believes.Nothing else
