Oliver Thränert (Ed.)
Enhancing the Biological Weapons Convention
Biological warfare agents are turning into an ever more serious threat. The
Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) to ban these weapons is too weak to cope
with it, as it does not contain intrusive verification provisions. In this
book, experts from six countries discuss the issue and present their own
proposals to enhance the BWC.
