Britain and Biological Warfare - Expert Advice and Science Policy, 1930-65 (Hardcover, New)

From fear of sabotage in the London Underground to the first anthrax bomb and the massive outdoor tests, Brian Balmer tells the largely untold history of biological weapons research and policy in Britain. Drawing on recently declassified documents, this book charts the secret history of germ warfare policy from the 1930's to the mid-1960's. Britain and Biological Warfare explores the role of independent scientific advisors in shaping one of the most significant biological warfare research programs in history.
