人类对人类的不人道是通过现代战争和恐怖的大量工具来表达的。在最近的历史中，无论是在战场上还是在城市恐怖活动中，都有使用化学和生物武器以攻击、打击和杀伤平民为目的的记录。以下是对目前使用的几种化学武器和生物毒素的总体审查，以及对潜在化学武器和反恐工具的研究。虽然这些武器是可怕的因素，但应该从常规武器的广泛可用性和效力的角度来看待这些危险。(C) 2004年由爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司出版
Man's inhumanity to man is expressed through a plethora of tools of modern warfare and terror. The use of chemical and biological weapons with the goals of assault, demoralisation and lethality has been documented in recent history, both on the battlefield and in urban terror against civilians. A general review of a few of the currently employed chemical weapons and biological toxins, along with a look at potential chemical weapons and tools of counter-terrorism, follows. While these weapons are fearsome elements, the dangers should be viewed in the context of the widespread availability and efficacy of conventional weapons. (C) 2004 Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
