Whether one is interested in learning about anthrax, sarin, the neutron bomb—or any other weapon of mass destruction—this thorough and detailed reference is the place to find answers. The threat posed by weapons of mass destruction (WMD), whether nuclear, radiological, chemical, or biological, is the number-one topic of concern for the intelligence community, first responders, policymakers, and myriad non-governmental organizations—and many members of the general public. This authoritative reference will serve all of those parties by covering the full spectrum of mass-casualty weapons. The guide will not only enable people to educate themselves, but also to separate the truth from the spurious information that abounds. The book offers an A-to-Z listing of major topics, making finding information about concepts, scientific theories, and realities of WMD fast and easy. While the framework of WMD goes back centuries, the major focus of this reference is on weapons that date from the use of chemical warfare in World War I. The book also covers WMD from the early nuclear era (World War II), the Cold War, and the present (Syria, North Korea, etc.). Each entry is written in a clear, accessible style and includes crucial background information, making this book an essential resource for both lay readers and specialists. Armed with this portable database, readers will have the confidence to deal with, discuss, or write about WMD of all kinds based on an understanding of relevant concepts, policies, and scientific fundamentals.

The events of September 11 2001 have altered the course of arms control intended to eliminate weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and has made the role of international organizations controversial. Whether they can effectively verify compliance with the WMD treaty regime has now been questioned by the United States. In responding to this basic question, Eliminating Weapons of Mass Destruction examines how existing organizations apply the main verification tools, how they can improve and consolidate them where possible in order to meet the new security challenges more effectively.

Exposing ESG’s Hidden Agenda Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) is a clever ruse. It’s not a naked power grab—but rather, an insidious deception playing on the public’s desire to do good. While ESG is touted as theanswer to systemic challenges, it is more accurately a cover to centralize power between state and corporations for unprecedented control, stealing liberty and prosperity. Authors Prescott and Ashley reveal how ESG threatens American meritocracy, energy resilience, economic prosperity, military readiness, agriculture, and yes—even the environment it professes to protect. Modeled on dystopian allegories like Animal Farm, 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and Brave New World, every chapter starts with a fictional story accompanied by a thorough discussion presenting vast research. Committed to halting and reversing the damage done by ESG propagandists, the authors open a unique and desperately needed dialogue, one that challenges globalist organizations, its private sector allies, and media abettors to expose ESG for what it really is: creative destruction.
