Standard Operating Procedure, written through a unique collaboration between Paris Review editor Philip Gourevitch and director Errol Morris (The Fog of War), is the first full reckoning of what really happened at Abu Ghraib prison, based on hundreds of hours of exclusive interviews with the Americans involved. Instead of a few bad apples, one is confronted with disturbingly ordinary young men and women whose experiences read like something out of the Inferno.
