Re: Overall rating and opinion of Preppers Medical Handbook" by William W Forgey

I think this was a great and unique idea for a book. I love that it talks about unconventional medicine or allopathic medicine as a way to deals with diseases that conventional medicine cannot. It is a great self-help book and as a pharmacist, I am intrigued that I found out about this book. I hardly think there is anything I dislike about it. I believe this is a book that is suited for almost anyone on the verge of giving up on conventional medicine. I believe it is also useful to researchers. Great read.

Latest Review: The Solution is Political Revolution by Jillion R Rising

The book is top notch. I really admire the author because he managed to summarize in a small format all the medical knowledge that an ordinary person may need in a real life situation. The book is very informative. Unfortunately, this is also what I don't like because medical knowledge is very diverse and extensive. In situations where human life is at stake, seconds mean a lot. I think it would be better if the author focused on a smaller number of real health problems we can encounter and ways to overcome them. I will definitely recommend the book to other people because it is probably one of the better books written on this topic.

There are so many things to like about this book. First, I like the fact that it is very informative; I learned the basics of first aid. Also, the author tried to make this book suitable for everyone. I cannot see why anyone will rate this book anything less than four out of four stars. Finally, I enjoyed the author's engaging style.

I'd rate it 4 out of 4 stars due to its valuable information that help us how to survive in life-threatening situations. The data is well organized, and the words are easy to understand. Plus, the illustrations make the procedures easy to learn. Overall, a must-read reference for everyone.

I'm a fan of medical books, at home we used to have an encyclopedia of medical terms and first aids and was nothing like this book. The book is written in a easy to understand lexicon, it is very informative. It conveys the readers necessary information in how to deal with medical situation. I gladly recommend it to everyone. This is the type of book every household must have on hand. I will rate the book 4 out of 4 stars

This book isn’t a one-time read one, you get to have it in handy when you’re not sure what to do. It gives more insight into what to do and how to act when an emergency struck. It was a 4 stars for me.

I'm not really into medical books as it's beyond my scope of interest, but this book is surprisingly very practical. There may be some general knowledge required, and you can't simply take this book to the wilderness without reading it first, but this is certainly useful for the times when there isn't hospital or doctors around. I think my physician mother would love this book.

I agree! Some books will explain everything in just words. The pictures in this book make it exceptionally understandable for those who need visuals. This makes it an even more useful tool to a bigger audience.

Could not agree more! Access to professional medical attention and care are proving to be more and more challenging and this necessitates that everyone be armed with basic self-help and self-care first aid knowledge. And you never know, it just might come in handy for someone else around you at any point in time.

Preppers Medical Handbook for me is a 4 star book. The intention of the writer is pure and he did justice to it. Telling us what to do at every point in time to save lives not just our loved ones but everyone as long as we can, to me is a wonderful lecture, because I have lost someone on a minor case, that if I heard learnt all that's in this book before then, I wouldn't have lost the person.

This book deserves a perfect rating for me, as the author breaks down his points into bits that make it easy to assimilate. He also tackles a very relevant topic, which is what I like most about the book. Many lives can be saved by what this book offers. I don't dislike anything about the book and highly recommended it.

This is one of those books that should be read at least twice by everyone. The information here is more than valuable and can be life saving. I love that now I know a little more about certain medical conditions and how to deal with them in an emergency. It's a 4 out 4 stars for me for sure.

Sharing medical knowledge in simpler terms for the masses is the best part of the book. I am very thankful to the author for this book. To me, it was a 4 by 4 stars. A very informative read. It was very easily understandable. Even remembering the instructions is quite easy. So its benefits will be easily found by any readers in my opinion.
