For a really great beddy time book check out How to Break a Terrorist! It actually was a fascinating read. The author, Matthew Alexander is not his real name, worked as an intelligence agent in Iraq. The methods that he used were more along the lines of building relationships of trust rather than control and force. His methods were remarkably successful. It is interesting to read how some of the lives of our soldiers were saved.
Warning, there is quite a bit of swearing especially in the beginning. There are quite a few times where there are sentences blacked out, and he never gives a reason. But, I've thought about taking a marker and just blacking out some of the swearing since the method is already used in the book.
Anyway, I thought it was a good read, despite some of the language. I'm glad to know they are using more effective methods to protect our soldiers and us.
