The NEW Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook
Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?
Things certainly don't seem to be getting better. On the 20th anniversary of its original edition—and needed now more than ever—the authors and experts behind the internationally bestselling Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook are back with a new edition to deliver crucial advice and guide readers through anxious and uncertain times. They bring all of the must-know information from the original up to the moment and add half again as many new scenarios for 21st-century perils.
Fully revised, updated, and streamlined, the core advice of the original book is as clear as present as the enduring dangers it addresses (quicksand, shark attacks, the need to perform a sudden tracheotomy, or jump from a moving car...). Added to this must-know info are 20 all-new scenarios for 21st-century threats, technological (how to evade a drone), sociological (how to determine "fake news"), and environmental (how to escape a sinkhole).
All packed in a sturdy hardcover handbook, here's the emergency instruction readers need now to be prepared for the worst.
