A web of prevention : biological weapons, life sciences and the governance of research by Brian Rappert
"This state-of-the-art volume examines the full extent of the issues and debates, analysing what we have and haven't learned from the past. It includes an overview of recent scientific achievements in virology, microbiology, immunology and genetic engineering in the context of how they might facilitate the production of weapons of mass destruction. Ultimately the authors examine what is required to form a comprehensive and workable 'web of prevention' that provides safe governance of vital but potentially dangerous research.
