Letter Re: A New Edition of Where There is No Doctor is Now Available

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.
