Short Description

Of all the threats to peace and democracy in the world today, few are more disturbing than that of biological or chemical warfare. These weapons are cheap to make and easy to use, which has made them the ideal choice for a new and sinister breed of terrorists. Protecting against Biological and Chemical Attack is a fascinating introduction to the main types of biological and chemical weapons, including their history, applications, and limitations. The reader will find grounds for confidence as well as for concern. The United States is by no means defenseless in the face of this evil. This book explains the actions currently being taken by the authorities to defend against biological and chemical warfare and how ordinary Americans can help protect themselves and their country.
