Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 1982

From his years helping Third World natives, Ragnar Benson brings you this handbook for doctoring humans with readily obtainable, cheaply priced vet that are often identical to prescription drugs and cost only a fraction as much. Tetanus, typhoid and gun-wound infections will never again strike fear in the hearts of survivalists who pack this illustrated handbook in with their antibiotics, syringes, sulfa drugs, sewing needles and sutures.

2.0 out of 5 stars Outdated, October 28, 1998

By A Customer

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Survivalist’s Medicine Chest (Paperback)

While the information in this book is useful, it is a bit outdated. I recommend Ragnar Benson's newer book, "Do-It-Yourself Medicine", which was written as an update to this book.

Craig M. Wall "Peak Oil Survivor" (34 north 112 west more or less) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Survivalist’s Medicine Chest (Paperback)

Ragnar's worst book ever. I own and value six others by him.
Devoid of useful information except for one concept, veterinarian medicines = human medicines, no prescription needed, dosages vary - check PDR, visit your local farm supply store.

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Survivalist’s Medicine Chest (Paperback)

A Great Book. Explains how to treat many diseases with
veterinary medicines. This man knows what he is talking about.
This book is written from his experience treating real people
in remote Africa and other far-away places. Ragnar has saved many lives with his knowledge and veterinary medicines.
A vital book for your emergency or survival library
