Biological Weapons: Limiting the Threat, edited by Joshua Lederberg, is a superb collection of essays covering a wide spectrum of issues (threat, history, detection, policy for response, biological terrorism, etc.) concerning biological weapons. The news media lately has been filled with tremendous amounts of speculation and hype concerning biological weapons-this volume is a welcomed voice of credibility in the wilderness of “so called” experts. The majority of the essays (13 of the 18 chapters) are adaptations of articles that have recently appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which lends this collection a high level of respect. An additional stamp of credibility is the forward by Secretary of Defense, William S. Cohen. If you are looking for a single and reliable source on biological weapons, this is easily the best book available. More Reviews
