Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is simply one of the finest, thorough, and comprehensive collections to date for Hospital Preparedness for Bio-terrorism. A multitude of issues are discussed related to bio terrorism and how hospitals and disaster relief agencies SHOULD prepare.
I am extremely glad that this information is available in one book to get agencies and hospitals started along the thought process, however, I shudder to think that anyone with influence in this area has NOT read this book.
If you are in any way involved in Hospital preparation for Bio Terror be you an administrator or otherwise, buy this book, read it and get it into other's hands!
