"This is a fundamental resource for life and associated scientists to raise awareness and understanding of biological security with regards to malign manipulation of scientific findings. The book is written by experts who have been engaged in biological security issues for decades, but in a systematically organized manner so that it is accessible to the wide range of different life and associated specialists who are creating the revolution in the sciences and technologies converging around the life sciences and thus radically changing our capabilities for the manipulation of living organisms for good purposes, but also opening up many more dangerous opportunities for malign manipulation ? in what has been termed dual-use applications such as novel biological and toxin weapons."--
