Homeland security has occupied the news since 9/11. Still, much of
the research about security risks, types of threats, and other
vital data remains unsubstantiated. Using the tools that verify
scientific finding, the editors have moved the issues of homeland
security to a level above rhetoric and hearsay. Authors, in this
volume, review the current literature, critique current
information, and provide suggestions for future research in several
areas. Topics in this volume include: Risk and Crisis Communication
Strategies in Response to Bioterrorism; Security Issues in Water
Infrastructure; Fundamental Causes of International Terrorism;
Understanding, Measuring, Modeling, and Management of Risks to
Homeland Security; Biosensors for Detection of Nerve Agents and
Agricultural Pesticides; Detection of Bacterial Pathogens and
Toxins; Anti-crop bioterrorism; and Medical Biosurveillance. This
volume is a must for all who are involved with issues of homeland
security from planners to administrators to researchers. The
editors of this volume are members of the Purdue Homeland Security
Institute, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana except Daniel
R. Dolk who is at the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey,
California.
