Despite the vital importance of the emerging area of biotechnology
and its role in defense planning and policymaking, no definitive
book has been written on the topic for the defense policymaker, the
military student, and the private-sector bioscientist interested in
the "emerging opportunities market" of national security. This
edited volume is intended to help close this gap and provide the
necessary backdrop for thinking strategically about biology in
defense planning and policymaking. This volume is about
applications of the biological sciences, here called "biologically
inspired innovations," to the military. Rather than treating
biology as a series of threats to be dealt with, such innovations
generally approach the biological sciences as a set of
opportunities for the military to gain strategic advantage over
adversaries. These opportunities rangefrom looking at everything
from genes to brains, from enhancing human performance to creating
renewable energy, from sensing the environment around us to
harnessing its power.
