ATP 4-02.84 serves as a primary doctrinal reference for the recognition and treatment of biological warfare agent casualties. It outlines fundamental tactics, techniques, and procedures for potential biological warfare agents directed against human beings, the problems that might be created during an attack in which a biological warfare agent is utilized and the current methods available to medical and veterinary personnel for recognizing, preventing, and managing these problems. Information contained in this publication may also be relevant for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with naturally acquired diseases or illnesses due to pathogens with biological warfare potential.
This book is a “Mini” (half the size of a piece of paper).
A popular size to carry anywhere (briefcase, large pocket, purse) but the print is large enough for easy reading. The binding is with coil, allowing easy flipping of pages without jamming.
The color covers are laminated for weather protection with black and white inside printing.
(A BIG size version (8 1/2 inch by 11 inch, the same size as a regular sheet of paper) is on this website too)
