Where There is No Doctor
by David Werner (Paperback)
Where There Is No Doctor is more than a book on first aid. It covers a wide range of things that affect the health of the villager-- from diarrhea to tuberculosis, from helpful and harmful home remedies to the cautious use of certain modern medicines.
Special importance is placed upon cleanliness, a healthy diet, and vaccinations. The book also covers in detail both childbirth and family planning.
Not only does it help the reader realize what he can do for himself, but it helps him recognize which problems need the attention of an experienced health worker.
