From Baird Maritime:
Another excellent guidebook from Adlard Coles Nautical that is actually designed to be used at sea, when you might need it. It is even water resistant.
It is all very well to undertake first aid training courses ashore. They are vital and prepare you to respond properly at sea where problems really occur. However, a clear, simple, beautifully presented book like this makes appropriate responses more likely and more timely than if you are referring to the old "Ships Captain's Medical Guide".
All the common complaints and injuries, as well as a few less so, are listed as is their treatment. The contents of an appropriate general purpose marine first aid kit are also suggested.
Very useful and eminently usable.
