The recent ragtag bands of pirates off the coast of Somalia, hijacking multimillion-dollar tankers owned by international shipping conglomerates, have brought the scourge of piracy into the modern era. Jay Bahadur's riveting narrative expos --the first of its kind--looks at who these men are, how they live, the forces that created piracy in Somalia, how the pirates spend the ransom money, how they deal with their hostages, among much, much more. It is a revelation of a dangerous world at the epicenter of political and natural disaster.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJay Bahadur's articles have appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe Times \u003c\/i\u003e(London), \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Globe and Mail \u003c\/i\u003e(Toronto).
