This is an important book - well worth your time, and, more importantly, 
accessible to non-specialists (such as BDMs):

It's not about spam, per se.  It's about the global underground economy, 
and includes a lot of insight into internecine warfare amongst online 
criminals, including DDoS attacks with huge collateral damage 
footprints; and also talks about the origins of the Blue Security fiasco 
and subsequent DDoS, DDoS attacks against Spamhaus, etc.
