As genetic engineering and other biotechnologies have developed, so has the potential for biological and toxin warfare. In this book, experts from both East and West discuss the development of these powerful agents of mass destruction as well as the creation of vaccines against them. Paying particular attention to the provisions of the 1975 Biological Weapons Convention, this study concludes with policy recommendations designed to strengthen the treaty and prevent the future military use of bioscience discoveries.
