Previous editions have been 1st place winners in the Book Excellence Awards in Medicine, and this one has many more topics and almost triple the illustrations to give the info needed to keep it together, even when everything else falls apart.
Called “America’s favorite survival medic” by American Outdoor Guide, NY Times/Amazon bestselling author Dr. Joe Alton and Nurse Practitioner Amy Alton have put together a 700 page book that encompasses trauma care, first aid, chronic care, medical procedures, and much more. It’ll be an essential reference for anyone concerned about the uncertain future.
Some topics covered in the book include: how to treat gunshot and knife wounds, food/water contamination, natural disaster preparedness topics (including blizzards, earthquakes, avalanches, survival when lost at sea and mudslides), medical skills, a guide to protective masks, how infections spread, attaining natural pain relief, fractures and other orthopedic injuries, natural remedies, and more.
"The Survival Medicine Handbook is written in plain English that anyone can understand, but it’s not just another medical first aid book. It’s unique in that it assumes that a disaster, natural or man-made, has removed all access to hospitals or doctors for the foreseeable future; you, the average person, are now the highest medical resource left to your family. The book’s goal is to make you effective in that role." said Dr. Joe Alton.
With over 300 topics and 300 illustrations, the 4th edition of the Survival Medicine
Handbook covers just about every situation the family medic will encounter in times of trouble.
