James,
Thank you for your excellent blog. It is one of my daily read sites, no matter where in the world I am. The Hesperian Foundation just published their updated 2010 version of Where There Is No Doctor: A Village Health Care Handbook by David Werner. It is 450 pages and has lots of excellent updated information. The download version is free, but I highly reccomend purchasing the paper copy for $22 USD
The last I heard paper books are still EMP proof. It will be nice to have a useable reference, if and when the computer is fried!
Best Regards, – The Consultant
JWR Replies: Thanks for that update. Readers should be sure to order the latest (2010) edition. Also note that translations in more than 180 languages (From Albanian to Zulu) are now available.
