Описание:
Biosecurity and Bioterrorism, Second Edition, takes a holistic approach to biosecurity, with coverage of pathogens, prevention, and response methodology. It addresses these hazards in the context of vulnerability assessments and the planning strategies government and industry can use to prepare for and respond to such events.

Case studies illustrate biodefense against both intentional terrorism and natural outbreaks.
Covers emerging threats of pandemic influenza, antibiotic resistant strains of bacterial pathogens, and severe respiratory diseases caused by novel viruses
Offers increased international coverage, including initiatives to counter biological weapons and threats, and food security
Updated throughout with latest protocols for dealing with biological threats and new case studies
Includes online instructor ancillaries - PowerPoint lecture slides, test questions, and an instructor manual, for increased classroom functionality
