520 | _aBiological weapons have received relatively little attention but this book points out that they have been used in the past and could be developed by terrorists rather more easily than say nuclear weapons. The first part of this book presents case studies of incidents allegedly due to BW, the second part considers policy and scholarly aspects of biological weapons. Identifies the need for transparency, international cooperation, and a process for establishing whether an event is a premeditated attack or a natural occurrence. The book is a result of cooperation between the US Naval Postgraduate School and King's College London. | ||
