Fong and Kenneth Alibek, in which each chapter takes up one agent or group of agents and weighs its potential as a weapon of bioterrorism. The bacterial threats come first: anthrax, treated both as a natural disease and as a weapon, followed by plague, tularemia, and melioidosis with glanders. Smallpox, the hemorrhagic fever viruses and botulism are covered next, along with ricin, a toxin that is not infectious.

Most of the contributors work in defense, government or biodefense.…

Biological warfare agents may be well suited for bioterrorism to create havoc and terror in a civilian population, because they are cheap and easy to obtain and dispense. Infectious or contagious diseases have played a major part in the history of warfare - deliberately or inadvertently - in restricting or assisting invading armies over the centuries. In 1346, the Tartars catapulted plaque-infected bodies into Kaffa in the Crimea to end a 3-year siege. Blankets contaminated with smallpox to infect North American Indians were used by British forces in the 18th century. More recently, the Japanese released eas infected with plaque in Chinese cities in the 1930s and 1940s.
