The Poisonous Cloud: Chemical Warfare in the First World War
ISBN: 9780198581420 / Angielski / Twarda / 430 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The introduction of chemical warfare during the First World War was a major event in the history of military technology.

This study, based on a previously unavailable range of archival material and statistical data, explores the military role of chemical warfare as well as its effects on people, industries and administration on...

ISBN: 9780275983147 / Angielski / Twarda / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. A new threat is stalking nations, as terrorist organizations and rogue states alike appear intent on acquiring and using the poor man's nuclear weapon: biological agents such as anthrax, smallpox, and plague.

U.S. military forces in Japan were attacked in April of 1990 with botulinum toxin by the Aum Shinrikyo cult. Hundreds in Oregon were sickened with Salmonella after an attack in 1984. And small amounts of anthrax resulted in widespread panic and frequent evacuations across the...

Deadly Cultures: Biological Weapons Since 1945
ISBN: 9780674016996 / Angielski / Twarda / 479 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The threat of biological weapons has never attracted as much public attention as in the past five years. Current concerns largely relate to the threat of weapons acquisition and use by rogue states or by terrorists. But the threat has deeper roots--it has been evident for fifty years that biological agents could be used to cause mass casualties and large-scale economic damage. Yet there has been little historical analysis of such weapons over the past half-century. Deadly Cultures sets out to fill this gap by analyzing the historical developments since 1945 and addressing...

In the aftermath of 9/11, the potential terror of weapons of mass destruction- from nuclear, biological, and chemical to dirty bombs-preoccupies national security experts. In Chemical Warfare, Frederic J. Brown, presents a cogent, innovative framework for understanding the historical forces that have restrained the use of WMD and how they continue to have relevance today.
