Medical Interventions for Bioterrorism and Emerging Infections

Our ideas about medical preparedness were changed by the tragedies that occurred on September 11, 2001. This practical handbook explores emerging and existing pathogens that could be used as weapons of mass infection, for example, anthrax, and discusses the appropriate medical responses to bioterror threats. 220 pages with full color insert
