A field guide to survival medicine, improvisation, and emergency care when professional help is unavailable.
When There Is No Doctor by Dr. Gerald S. Boyle is a practical guide to emergency and improvised medical care for situations where professional treatment is delayed or unavailable. Drawing on clinical experience and disaster-preparedness knowledge, Boyle outlines basic principles of first aid, triage, and resourceful treatment in remote, crisis, or disrupted environments.
Designed for readers interested in preparedness, travel in remote regions, and self-reliance, the book addresses common medical emergencies and outlines what can and cannot be done safely outside a clinical setting. Boyle emphasizes prevention, stabilization, and decision-making under pressure, providing context on when to seek professional care and how to manage risks when that option is not immediately available.
Part survival manual and part medical preparedness guide, When There Is No Doctor has found an audience among readers of disaster readiness, off-grid living, expedition travel, and emergency response. Its focus on practical knowledge and situational awareness places it alongside other widely read preparedness titles that examine how individuals respond to medical needs outside conventional systems.
A core title for readers of survival medicine, disaster preparedness, and practical first aid in remote or emergency conditions.
