I often get asked what I consider to be the best book on the subject of NBCD. I can only base my answer to such a question on sources that I'm familiar with, and so I present my top 10 books below. It should be made clear that these are my favourites on the subject of nuclear, biological and chemical warfare as a whole, and not just respirators. I have no doubt that my list will differ greatly to that of others, so whether you agree or disagree with my list, let me know why!
