Global impact of chemical warfare agents used before and after 1945

Handbook of Toxicology of Chemical Warfare Agents, 2020
Publisher Summary The use of toxic chemicals against humankind is as old as any warfare conflict. The use of the poisoned arrow against man—not animal—can be considered as the beginning of chemical warfare and would be characterized as the intentional ...
