Book Description
You want to go to some less-travelled country-Zambia, for example-but you don't know what vaccinations are required, much less what health hazards may await you there. Your friends are planning a trip to Tibet, but you're worried about how to handle the thinner air up there. You're travelling with your children for the first time, and you're not sure how to handle it. Well, Culture Shock! A Traveller's Medical Guide gives you all the information you'll need to keep yourself and your friends and family safe and healthy while travelling. Dr. Paul Zakowich, medical advisor to the U.S. Embassy in Singapore, former chief medical coordinator of a medical assistance organization and travel buff, has filled this easy-to-read book with all the medical information a layperson might need not only while travelling, but also during the planning stages of the trip. The true travel stories included illustrate the common mistakes travellers make when it comes to keeping healthy while travelling. Covering everything from getting medical travel insurance, packing a medical kit and doing CPR to the best way to handle children on a long flight and what vaccinations they will need before travelling, Culture Shock! A Traveller's Medical Guide is the best travelling companion you'll ever have.
