What would you do if you were in a major crisis where modern resources suddenly vanish? What if hospitals are overwhelmed and emergency services are stretched beyond capacity? Could you confidently take on the role of primary medical support during a crisis? Renowned advocates for medical preparedness, Dr. Joe Alton and Nurse Practitioner Amy Alton, have unveiled the latest edition of their acclaimed book, the "Survival Medicine Handbook: A guide for when help is NOT on the way." This expanded 4th edition is brimming with even more crucial information and nearly triple the illustrations, aiming to arm you with the essential knowledge needed to navigate through chaotic and uncertain times. Hailed as "America’s favourite survival medic" by the American Outdoor Guide and a bestselling author featured in the NY Times and Amazon, Dr. Joe Alton and Nurse Practitioner Amy Alton present a comprehensive 700-page manual.
Encompassing trauma care, first aid, chronic care, medical procedures, and a wide array of other vital topics, this handbook is an indispensable resource for those concerned about unforeseen emergencies.

With over 300 topics and 300 black and white illustrations, this 4th edition covers a diverse range of scenarios that a family medic might face in times of crisis. It's not just another medical first aid book; it's a tailored guide designed to prepare you for the unexpected and equip you to handle critical situations.
