Steven H. Miles is Professor Emeritus of Medicine and Bioethics. His medical career was in Internal Medicine and Geriatrics. He is a former Maas Family Endowed Chair in Bioethics at the University of Minnesota Medical School in Minneapolis.
Dr. Miles has published thirty chapters and more than 200 medical articles on medical ethics, human rights, tropical medicine, end of life care, and medical torture. He has extensive international experience including global work with refugees and work on behalf of victims of torture. He currently serves on the board of the Minnesota ACLU Foundation, the editorial board of Torture Journal (Denmark) and is a Master Gardener.
I spoke to him about his latest book The Torture Doctors: Human Rights Crimes and the Road to Justice.
Some of the topics we discussed includes:

  • Understanding what a torture doctor is and do they take part in it?
  • The role of a physician when it comes to torture.
  • Some of the physician supervised practices that has taken place
  • Why it was important for the UK to be highlighted in the book
  • How impactful Human Rights Organisations have been in bringing about change.
  • How Medical Associations have been complicit
  • How rare it is for a country to take accountability for its torture doctors.
  • What more can medical licensing boards and associations can do in promoting more accountability around this.

The Book and Audiobook: The Torture Doctors: Human Rights Crimes and the Road to Justice is out now.
