...Lahore for India and to start over again. A special program for blind children sends him to America; there, a wealthy woman becomes his patron and sponsors his studies. Mehta's calm, unhurried prose captures the fable-like events of his life. His effortless description of how good and evil things just happen to him and how he manages to cope as best as he can is the principal charm of his memoirs. In All for Love, about his love affairs, women walk into his life, announce that they love him; then they announce that they don't anymore...
...state of the union address last week, u.s. president George W. Bush restrained himself on the topic of North Korea, saying merely: "We are working closely with the governments in Asia to convince North Korea to abandon its nuclear ambitions." That was it.

Such language is typical. Bond trading "is like a blood sport," says Cari Lynn, who spent two years trading and has just written a book about the experience, "and I've seen the blood." The sums of money and risks...
...masterminded a vast, clandestine and hugely profitable enterprise whose mission boiled down to this: selling to a rogues' gallery of nations the technology and equipment to make nuclear weapons. Among Khan's customers were Iran and North Korea--two countries identified by Bush as members of the "axis of evil," whose nuclear ambitions present the U.S. with two of its biggest foreign policy quandaries. At a moment when the international community is focused on a potential showdown with Iran, a TIME investigation has revealed that Khan's network played a bigger role in helping Tehran and Pyongyang than had been...
