Spam Nation

A pretty satisfying read: from a tech standpoint, most books that ‘dabble' in tech are littered with mistakes. Krebs knows his subject and explains it well. His prose isn't magical - sometimes the scene-setting and phrasing will lack grace, but it's never bad enough to overpower the well-constructed plotline and good background research.

I've always found the economy behind spam kind of interesting, and this book does an interesting job at shedding light on how spam works, both in terms of who's doing it and how, and also in terms of who is buying and why.
