Koblentz (government and politics, George Mason U.) examines biological weapons programs from the United States, Russia, Iraq and South Africa to reveal the challenges of global arms control and deterrence, showing students and policymakers how modern research in the life sciences can be exploited to build more effective weapons. The author exposes the threats of biological weapons by showing how easy these weapons can be developed and purchased by developing nations and terrorist organizations. Recommendations are also made for threat reduction through international security measures, better detection technology and the limiting of the proliferation of materials.
