The purpose of this manual is to provide a source of easily accessed reference material for both the professional and nonprofessional reader. Special Forces and contract military personnel, law enforcement officers, corporate security personnel, and interested civilians alike will find the information here invaluable. The contents will impart to the reader a sound basic knowledge of the principles and techniques involved in the preparation of IEDs and booby traps, as well as appropriate counterbomb/counterterrorist measures. Several previously unpublished and original techniques are revealed here, not to further terrorist or criminal projects, but in the belief that a wider knowledge of such techniques will do much to improve existing counterterrorist measures. At the very least, any subsequent deployment of related systems will lack the high surprise value which would otherwise be the case. This in itself will help save lives. Note that for obvious reasons no specific explosive manufacturing details are included. ...
