The Hesperian book site contains health and medical books for everyone to access and download for free. The latest versions are always available on their site. In addition to free books they also sell hard copies. These require no computers and are small enough to fit in your medical kit. I have a hard copy of ‘Where there is no Doctor’ and ‘Where there is no Dentist’ in my medical kit. Go and buy the books if you can. Note also that some additional statistical files are available from the Hesperian Web site.
Download these files, read and prepare.
