A guide on procedures, administration, and equipment, Bombs, IEDs,
and Explosives: Identification, Investigation, and Disposal
Techniques introduces concepts, basic knowledge, and necessary
skill sets for bomb technicians. It covers topics such as training
resources, bomb threat and incident response, legal aspects of bomb
disposal, explosives and improvised explosive devices (IEDs), bomb
technology, bomb disposal equipment, and explosive evidence
handling. The book outlines where bomb squads and technicians have
historically been placed within the public safety system and
suggests where they should ideally fit according to their function.
It details specific standard operating procedures (SOPs) for
various bomb threat and response scenarios, discusses protocols for
requesting and supporting a bomb squad response, and addresses
legal and forensic aspects of handling and associated
recordkeeping. With the growing threat of chemical, biology, and
radiological terrorism, the book recommends a stronger alliance of
bomb disposal and hazardous materials response teams. Such
alliances-in conjunction with increased interorganizational
coordination between public safety divisions, such as police and
fire departments-will lead to more effective responses to incidents
and threats. The field of bomb disposal is constantly evolving.
Bombers and bombmakers, especially those associated with terrorist
organizations, study emergency responses to incidents to modify
their devices for increased effectiveness. This book stresses the
need for flexibility and creativity in response. Bombs, IEDs, and
Explosives provides a ready reference on a wide variety of
technical, administrative, and legal information that makes it
indispensable to bomb disposal professionals and units.
