The information contained within is aimed at surviving in the most extreme conditions. Granted, not many of us will be stranded in the North Pole - but if we were, we'd know not to eat a polar bear's liver, because the amount of vitamin A contained therein is toxic! More usable information includes:
- Beautiful, accurate pictures of edible and poisonous plants- How-to advice on setting up temporary camps- Basic first aid and medical care- How to survive a nuclear attack, war conditions, fire/ice/extreme weather conditions- A virtually complete instruction on how to set up different traps to catch your food,And other amazing pieces of information simply too numerous to list.
All in all, there are probably more professional, intensive survival guides - but this is by far one of the more approachable, with common sense advice that we can use even in a non-survival situation.
