(3) YA Rescue and Prevention: Defending Our Nation series. This clearly written book, liberally illustrated with color photos, surveys biological perils throughout history, including the medieval "Black Death" and global flu epidemics, then describes how smallpox, anthrax, and "agroterrorism" could be used today by terrorists or in warfare. The tone is grim but not hysterical as Kerrigan explains that education and vigilance are our best defenses. Timeline. Bib., glos., ind.
