Abstract

This book is a compilation of essays arising out of the biannual meetings of the Executive Session on Domestic Preparedness (ESDP) at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. The ESDP is funded by the Department of Justice and is a joint project of two distinct research centers at Harvard University: the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and the Taubman Center for State and Local Government. The ESDP has brought together key leaders in domestic preparedness planning, national security, and public health since 1999. The book contains a total of 13 essays, an introduction, author biographies and an index.
