Focusing on preventative measures, it also contains chapters dealing with crisis management, emergency care, and evacuation from challenging environments, with guidance about the obligations of a clinician joining an expedition, ethical approaches to such work, and medicine in various extreme environments. This edition will give you the confidence and skills you need to travel to any extreme or remote environment. Incorporating the combined knowledge and experience of a team of experienced clinicians and expeditioners, this is a practical, easy-to-use guide to all aspects of expedition and wilderness medicine., This handbook provides practical information on the prevention and treatment of medical problems in extreme environments. An essential resource for expeditions and travellers to remote areas, it offers guidance on maintaining the physical and psychological health of team members under the stresses and challenges of an expedition.

- i***z (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseItem is as described thankfully, but the shrink wrap was already torn when I opened it, and the message on the shrink wrap said not returnable if shrink wrap is removed. I would not have know the condition had I not removed the wrapping. Expected arrival date was delayed by 4 days which may have affected my choice in seller had I known upfront. Overall, I am happy with the price, the product, and order/delivery time frame.The Real World: An Introduction to Sociology 9th Ed. By Kerry Ferris (#146007256906)
