Short Biography: Dr. Charles H. Wick, Ph.D., is a research physical scientist with more than 28 years of technical and managerial experience within the Department of Defense and Private Industry. After obtaining four degrees from the University of Washington, Dr. Wick first practiced managerial and technical skills in the civilian sector from 1971-1983. This successful career resulted in several publications, international participation, a patent, and the application of basic research to industry.
Dr. Wick joined the Vulnerability/Lethality Division of the US Army Ballistic Research Laboratory in 1983 and won immediate acceptance as an organizer, principal investigator and team leader. A result of his efforts was the first effort to advance the modeling of sublethal chemical, nuclear and biological agents using fundamental knowledge. This was a major advancement.

As terrorists become more determined to cause chaos, the possibility of them using chemical or biological weapons increases. An attack of this nature in any county would pose a great danger to the entire world. Modern technology has made it easier for terrorists to produce chemical and biological weapons for use in public areas. In order to prevent attacks, or contain the spread of disease or chemical exposure, the response must be rapid, organized and thorough. Forensic Aspects of Biological and Chemical Terrorism is an eye-opening resource for first responders, health care professionals, law enforcement agencies and government officials. It provides valuable insight into what response areas need improvement and what responder roles should be. It extensively covers the investigation of attacks from the signs and symptoms of diseases and chemical exposure to scene investigation. This timely resource is a must have for anyone involved in public health and public safety. Click on the book title for more information
