This relates the stories of 40 cases of modern yacht piracy, and tries to suggest what bluewater sailors can do about it. The author interviewed 40 victims, asking what they learned from their hostile encounter and what they would suggest others do differently to avoid (or just survive) such incidents. He also outlines which areas in the world are the most dangerous. This interesting book suggests what preventive measures sailors can take and advises how they should deal with the stress, aggression and fear when faced with a confrontation. HB. 336pp
