This book examines how the law of armed conflict regulates the use of nano-technologies as a means or method of warfare. It explores three specific weapons, namely nano-enhanced thermobarics, optogenetics and genetic modification, and their existing legal frameworks, relevance and future military use of nanomaterials and other technologies.
