Tea Time with Terrorists A Motorcycle Journey

A gripping face-to-face encounter with Sri Lankan terrorists that sheds light upon the origins of the most frightening form of 21st century warfare. Armed with a map, a motorcycle, an infectious sense of humour and a dim understanding of Sri Lankan politics, Mark Stephen Meadows arrived in the country to get a better understanding of terrorism and suicide bombing from the people who were among the first to use it - the infamous Tamil Tigers. Figuring that the first step to solving a problem is understanding it, he traveled deep into the warzone.This is his story.

Mark Stephen Meadows is an American author, entrepreneur, and artist. He is the inventor of several US patents relating to artificial intelligence and avatars, and he lectures internationally on this work.
