The Evolution of Biological Disarmament

By Nicholas A. Sims

In 1972, the first Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention (BTWC) Review Conference was considered a major event; this book describes the evolution of the disarmament regime of the BTWC from 1980 until 1998. Applying an original sector-by-sector approach to its analysis of the BTWC, this book
studies-in a long-term perspective-many topics, from the results of the first four review Conferences to the implementation of Article X (of the BTWC) on international transfers and cooperation for peaceful purposes.
