Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.co.uk Review
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 Green

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars not for the faint-hearted   December 15, 2007
An authoritative book by all the experts in the field but can be very scary


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic book   August 12, 2006

In the internet age where information on disease preventention and treatment seems available everywhere online it might seem that books like this aren't needed - not so! This is a well written, information, comprehensive book which is equally well suited to the curious traveller to a medical professional. Once you've got this book you'll go here first, online second when looking for some information on any aspect of travel health. Very highly recommended.
