Biowarrior: Inside the Soviet/Russian Biological War Machine

Rating:
Summary: A chilling account
Review: Readers of Russian politics and world peace will find Biowarrior: Inside the Soviet/Russian Biological War Machine to be an intriguing insider's look at the Soviet biological war machine, written by a leading Russian scientist who worked for decades at the heart of the program. Igor Domaradskij was a dedicated scientist who was often in conflict with military approaches: he became a specialist in epidemic bacterial infections, and was responsible for plague control within the former USSR, and also helped design the Soviet military's bio-weapons program. A chilling account, Biowarrior is a welcome and informative addition to the growing body of Cold War Era information that has come to light since the downfall of the old communist empire.

Review: This book was not what I expected. The author spends much valuable time describing his personal trials and tribulations with the Russian "system" rather than explaining the what, how, where, and gory details of biological warfare. If you are looking for an exciting read, pass on this one...I did read the whole thing and I can guarantee it will put you to sleep every time you pick it up!
