Terrorism Emergency Response is an ideal resource for the critical thinking and response preparation needed by all emergency response personnel—EMS, fire, rescue, and law enforcement. The workbook begins by providing basic information regarding terrorist incidents and the agents commonly faced during these incidents. It follows with seventy case-based scenarios that any responder can use to help sharpen their decision-making skills.
