Taking into account these practical considerations, the second edition of Science and Technology of Terrorism and Counterterrorism discusses the nature of terrorism and the materials used by terrorists. It describes how intelligence professionals and law enforcement personnel can detect and destroy these materials, and how they can deal with terrorist groups.ThisPublic administration and public policy ;156.TerrorismTechnological innovationsBioterrorismChemical terrorismNuclear terrorismTerrorismTechnological innovations.Bioterrorism.Chemical terrorism.Nuclear terrorism.363.325Ghosh Tushar K.Dr.767946MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910800158403321Science and technology of terrorism and counterterrorism3876973UNINA
