Neuroscience and the Problem of Dual Use

Focusing on the implications of recent brain research, the book explores the dual-use concerns arising from advancements in neuroscience. It is structured in three parts: the first discusses the growing worries within chemical and biological non-proliferation regimes; the second reviews international brain research projects and their objectives; and the third evaluates how civil neuroscience findings can be safeguarded against potential misuse in developing new chemical and biological weapons.
