Описание: Gives readers a detailed understanding of how specific biological weapons work and how those affected by the weapons would be treated The subject of bioterrorism is only mentioned tangentially, if at all, in most undergraduate programs; however, biological weapons are a very real threat to all societies around the world. Some agents are available for legal purchase on the Internet with the proper credentials, and it is extremely likely that an international black market exists for the deadliest of these agents. Protocols for weaponizing some agents are available on the Internet, and most of the required materials can be purchasedat any large hardware store. Biological Weapons: Recognizing, Understanding, and Responding to the Threat is designed for anyone seeking knowledge on bioterrorism and biological weapons; one does not have to be a medical professional or even a science major to understand the discussions and terminology in this text. The book is separated into four units and provides an overview of microbiology, the human immune system, agencies that monitor biological threats, and the major threats from bacteria, toxins, and viruses. The opening chapters include sufficient background for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. The Chapter Review Questions found at the end of each chapter provide a quick way to test understanding of the material, and the Unit Reviews help tie it all together. Biological Weapons covers: Overviews of microbiology, immunology, and defense agencies Bacterial Weapons such as Anthrax, Plague, Tularemia, and Cholera Toxins including: Ricin, Botulism, and Staphylococcal enterotoxin B Viruses including: Ebola, Smallpox, Hantavirus, Viral encephalitis, Nipah Virus, Lassa Fever A closing chapter looking ahead at Policies, Procedures, & Prevention The material presented here will increase the general knowledge of biological warfare agents and the dangers they present. The more aware we are of the threat, the more prepared our society will be to respond to an act of biological terrorism.

Описание: Since independence, the West African sub-region has been an arena for a number of large-scale conflicts and civil wars, as well as simmering and low-intensity uprisings. Contrary to perceptions, West Africa in its post-independence history has experienced fewer conflict events and fatalities from conflict than the other sub-regions on the continent. The turn of the millennium has witnessed the recession of large-scale and conventional conflict, and it has ushered in new and emerging threats. The specters of religious extremism, maritime piracy, and narcotics trafficking threaten toundermine some of the progress achieved in recent years.The Challenge of Stability and Security in West Africa critically examines the key drivers of conflict and violence, and the way in which they impact the countries of the sub-region. In addition to emerging threats, these drivers include the challenges of youth inclusion, migration, sub-regional imbalances, and extractives, as well as challenges related to the fragility of political institutions and managing the competition for power, reform of the security sector, and weakness of institutions related to land management. The book explores how the sub-region, under the auspices of the regional organization ECOWAS, has become a pioneer on the continent in terms of addressing regional challenges.The Challenge of Stability and Security in West Africa also identifies key lessons in the dynamics of resilience in the face of political violence and civil war drawn from Côte d'Ivoire, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, that can be useful for countries around the world in similar situations. It incorporates knowledge and findings from leading experts and provides insights from academics and development practitioners. Finally, the book identifies possible policy and programmatic responses and directions for policy dialogue at the national and international levels.

Описание:
Responding to Money Laundering has its origin in the International Conference on Preventing and Controlling Money Laundering and the Use of Proceeds of Crime: A Global Approach organised by ISPAC, the International Scientific and Advisory Board of the United Nations in co-operation with the Crime and Justice Branch of the United Nations under the auspices of the Italian Government. This conference has been a milestone in the recent international debate on money laundering. Some of the main papers presented are substantially revised and collected in this book making a major contribution to the development of expertise in the field. Divided into two sections -- Trends and Implications and Tuning the Instruments -- the chapters develop an analysis of the different aspects of the money laundering problem and attempt to tune the instruments for combating them. Globalization of the problem calls for globalization of the responses. By presenting a wide range of different approaches and

Описание: This book explores the climate policy approaches established by various city governments. It details the strategies, plans and initiatives that have so far been designed to both mitigate and adapt to the impacts of global warming. In doing so, it considers the implications of the actions taken by leading cities and its effects on underlying theoretical assumptions relating to policy development and management processes in achieving climate policy outcomes. Cities Responding to Climate Change establishes an analytical framework that critically examines the application of performance management by city governments in their policy responses to climate change. It draws its focus on the city governments of Copenhagen, Stockholm and Tokyo to bring together and discuss the concepts, strategies and practices that have since been introduced to respond to the climate challenges faced. This book highlights the lessons to be learned by other city governments around the world contemplating serious action with climate policies to lessen the impacts of global warming. It will be of particular interest to practitioners and researchers seeking evidence of how governments deliver on their commitments and improve their effectiveness in implementing climate polices.
