"where there is no doctor"

Libro sulla medicina in posti dove i medici in camice bianco se ne vedono pochi: diagnosi, trattamento e prevenzione delle patologie più comuni:

Hesperian's classic manual, Where There Is No Doctor, is arguably the most widely-used health care manual in the world.

This 2013 updated reprint features new information on tuberculosis and HIV, updated medicines, anti-retroviral therapy, and preventing HIV in babies.

All Hesperian books are regularly updated and reprinted to reflect accurate medical information.

Useful for health workers, clinicians, and others involved in primary health care delivery and health promotion programs, with millions of copies in print in more than 75 languages, the manual provides practical, easily understood information on how to diagnose, treat, and prevent common diseases. Special attention is focused on nutrition, infection and disease prevention, and diagnostic techniques as primary ways to prevent and treat health problems.

Questo manuale insegna ai medici a cavarsela in situazioni difficili, come quella presente in villaggi lontano dalla civiltà; sono fornite informazioni utili per la diagnosi, il trattamento e la prevenzione di patologie e il modo di improvvisare strumenti utili al proprio lavoro.
