Jane's Chem-bio Handbook

Training and a flexible emergency response plan is the basis of effective front-line defence against a chemical or biological threat. Jane's Chem-Bio Handbook, now in its third edition, provides the most comprehensive single-source instruction to date for both first-responders and all others who may be involved in a chem-bio incident. This edition includes more in-depth site vulnerability information and is organised to increase overall usability in the field. New content includes mission critical strategic considerations (risk management, co-ordination between local, state and federal agencies, etc.), a breakdown of NIMS (National Incident Management System), and separate coverage of chemical and biological incidents (key differences between the two types of incidents and the required respective responses).
