"Robert Burke's book is an eye opener; Terrorism is real and we are not immune from any form of Terrorist Activities.
Robert Burke addresses the real true problem in domestic Terrorism and Global Terrorism. "Fear is winner" when any type of terror attack occurs. No matter how we may be prepared the Terrorist have been scouting our weakness constantly. "Thus we have become weaken from all dimensions" We must hold our resolve from our previous lesson in order to prevail in the future from Terrorism."
- William (BJ) Jetter, University of Cincinnati, Greater Cincinnati Hazardous Material Unit. Duty Officer, USA

"This is a terrific resource for any emergency responder from a small-town volunteer to a large city professional who may be called upon to respond to a WMD event. For those with little to no hazardous materials training it is an exhaustive work. For those trained in CBRNE is it a thorough review. A text that can and should be referred to often. It is a very useful tool."
- Michael F. Roeshman, Deputy Chief/HazMat Chief, Philadelphia Fire Department (Retired), PA
