Agents of Bioterrorism

Description:

"In the aftermath of September 11 and the delivery of anthrax through the mail, bioterrorism has been a subject of great concern and some misunderstanding. With these fears and uncertainties in mind, the authors of Agents of Bioterrorism offer a clear, balanced, and thorough account of the threats posed by bioterrorism and how to prepare for and respond to an attack. This volume explores a range of topics and provides considerable information and insight for scientists, public safety officials, policymakers, and concerned citizens."--Jacket.
