intro
The Slaughter exposes the Chinese state's secret program to eliminate political dissidents while profiting from the sale of their organs--in many cases, to Western recipients. Based on interviews with top-ranking officials, doctors who have killed on the operating table, and prisoners of conscience who survived, Ethan Gutmann has produced a riveting insider's account.

The Slaughter has been featured by the New York Post, and Gutmann recently was interviewed by WNYC's The Leonard Lopate Show.

Publishers Weekly calls The Slaughter "vital," and says "[Gutmann's] analysis of how China gulled the rest of the world is astute, and effectively shows that hiding the fate of Falun Gong prisoners is a 'denial of an outright atrocity.'" The National Review also called attention to this revealing book. 

In an age of compassion fatigue, Gutmann relies on one simple truth: those who have made it back from the gates of hell have stories to tell. And no matter what baggage readers may bring along, their preconceptions of China will not survive the trip.
