An enlightening (and troubling) history of weapons of mass destruction (WMD; chemical, biological, nuclear, and radiological) will be provided. In response, various efforts to halt the spread of WMD programs have been developed at both domestic and international levels, such as treaties, international control agencies, and limitations on the transfer of requisite technologies, commodities, and materials.
