The weapons themselves are relatively inexpensive and very easy to hide, and organizations of just a few dozen people are capable of deploying potentially devastating attacks with them. While in the twentieth century most of our arms-control effort focused, rightly, on nuclear arsenals, in the twenty-first century CBW will almost certainly require just as much attention. This book defines the basics of CBW for the concerned citizen, including non-alarmist scientific descriptions of the weapons and their antidotes, methods of deployment and defensive response, and the likelihood in the current global political climate of additional proliferation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Copernicus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-11-26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387950761\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4613-0025-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 306\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47388882272396,"sku":"9780387950761","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387950761.jpg?v=1777987084","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387950761","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
