The Chemical Weapons Convention Handbook
September 14, 1993
Stimson Handbook 2
The complexity of the Chemical Weapons Convention makes it difficult for newcomers to the art and science of chemical weapons arms control to become acquainted with the Convention. The purpose of this handbook is to introduce readers to the subject by breaking it down into digestible pieces and using reader-friendly language. To the extent possible, authors Amy Smithson, Donald Mahley and Elisa Harris have avoided technical and legal jargon.
