Chemical and Biological Warfare

Partially funded by the Ploughshares Fund, this primer reviews the history of CBW, describes defenses against currently known biological and chemical agents, considers the incentives and disincentives facing nations that either develop CBW armaments or tolerate their development, and reflects on the prospects for control and disarmament.
