Synopsis de l’éditeur
"This volume is edited by one current and one former senior official at the US Air Force Counterproliferation Center. Contributors are former military personnel and analysts from conservative think tanks specializing in weapons of mass destruction (WMD) issues. The book comprehensively reviews the broad range of issues associated with addressing the threats posed by various types of WMDs. Appendixes and extensive footnotes also include considerable useful information regarding the evolution of policies to counter WMDs....Important for specialized collections on the military, but not a book for generalists. Recommended. General readers, lower-division undergraduates through practitioners." - Choice
