| Zusammenfassung: | A deadly combination of shortsighted mistakes by Western governments, chaos in the former Soviet Union, and virulent international terrorism has succeeded in making us far more vulnerable than many would like to admit. Published in conjunction with the eight-hour PBS series this book focuses our attention like never before on threats posed by terrorism and unsecured weapons of mass destruction. It delves into an exploration of those who endanger our national interest, the forms their threat might take, and what can be done to avert the kinds of disasters likely to ensue. Drawing on numerous interviews with world leaders, experts, former terrorist and would-be nuclear thieves, the author explains how and why biological, chemical, and nuclear warfare may very well be our next nightmare. |
