Neuroscience and the Problem of Dual Use : Neuroethics in the New Brain Research Projects Hardback

Part of the Advanced Sciences and Technologies for Security Applications series

Hardback

Description

This book discusses recent brain research and the potentially dangerous dual-use applications of the findings of these research projects.

The book is divided into three sections: Part I examines the rise in dual-use concerns within various state’s chemical and biological non-proliferation regime’s during this century, as well as the rapid technologically driven advances in neuroscience and the associated possible misuse considerations in the same period.

Part II reviews the brain research projects in the EU, USA, Japan, China and several other countries with regard to their objectives, achievements and measures to deal with the problem of dual-use.

Part III assesses the extent to which the results of this civil neuroscience work, which is intended to be benign, are being, and could be protected against future hostile applications in the development of novel chemical and biological weapons.
