Travellers' Health: How to Stay Healthy Abroad Book

Traveller's Health caters best for those travelling in rural and isolated areas of the non- industrialised world. Most cities now have doctors, making unnecessary the sort of self-diagnosis that it assists. Containing a mine of information on virtually every health problem imaginable--from snakebites to the dangers of a bad trip--it is a book which everyone planning to travel off the beaten track in tropical parts of the world ought to have with them. Written by a selection of experts in relevant fields, the book combines an accessible style with the critical medical information that could be the difference between life and death. A word of warning-- this book might encourage hypochondria and health obsession. This is an invaluable book--don't leave home for far flung shores without it--but not one that the easily alarmed should read at their camp-fire-sides in a malaria-ridden swamp. --Toby GreenRead More
