Smallpox: The Fight to Eradicate a Global Scourge
ISBN: 9780520242203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Though smallpox was eradicated from the planet two decades ago, recent terrorist acts have raised the horrific possibility that rogue states, laboratories, or terrorist groups are in possession of secret stockpiles of the virus that causes the disease, and may be preparing to unleash it on target populations.

Death by Moderation: The U.S. Military's Quest for Useable Weapons
ISBN: 9780521119511 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book addresses an important but little-noticed phenomenon in the revolutionary world of military technology. Across a wide range of otherwise-unrelated weapons programs, the Pentagon is now pursuing arms that are deliberately crafted to be less powerful, less deadly, and less destructive than the systems they are designed to supplement or replace. This direction is historically anomalous; military forces generally pursue ever-bigger bangs, but the modern conditions of counter-insurgency warfare and military operations other than war (such as peacekeeping and humanitarian assistance)...

Non-Lethal Weapons: The Law and Policy of Revolutionary Technologies for the Military and Law Enforcement
ISBN: 9780521674355 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Too often, military and law enforcement authorities have found themselves constrained by inadequate weaponry. An emerging category of 'non-lethal weapons' carries promise for resolving this dilemma, proffering new capabilities for disabling opponents without inflicting death or permanent injury. This array of much more sophisticated technologies is being developed, and could emerge for use by soldiers and police in the near future. These augmented capabilities carry both immense promise and grave risks: they expand the power of law enforcement and military units, enabling them to accomplish...
