The 440-page handbook is a complete guide to creating a practical disaster preparedness plan. The 3rd Edition has been expanded to cover every important topic, including food storage, water purification, home improvements, electricity generation, backup heating, personal protection, financial preparations, communication systems, disaster preparedness networks, evacuations, life-saving first aid, and much more. An entire chapter is also provided for people with special needs, including the elderly, those with young children, people with disabilities, and pet owners.
Inside the handbook are hundreds of photographs, tables, and useful tips. The new larger 8" x 10" format also includes easy-to-copy worksheets to help organize your family's preparedness plans. Working through the steps identified in this book will prepare your family for nearly any disaster, whether it be natural disasters making the news daily (e.g., earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and tsunamis), or high-impact global events, such as electromagnetic pulse attacks, radiological emergencies, solar storms, nuclear war, or our country's impending financial collapse.
Discover why this handbook is being praised by emergency management experts, preppers, church groups, survivalists, bloggers, soccer moms, and people from every walk of life. Now is the time to take responsibility for your family's safety by putting into place important emergency preparations.
About the Author
Dr. Arthur Bradley writes from personal experience about preparing for a wide variety of disasters, including earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, house fires, massive snowstorms, electromagnetic pulse attacks, and solar storms. He has numerous certifications in electromagnetics and is viewed as a world expert on the topic of EMP preparedness. His interests include shooting, martial arts, travel, and writing.
His Handbook to Practical Disaster Preparedness for the Family has been featured in the New York Times, Money magazine, the Toronto Sun, Popular Mechanics, Men's Journal and the Costco Connection. The Handbook is widely recognized as the gold standard of family preparedness manuals.
Dr. Bradley also has a best-selling "Survivalist" series that features a Deputy Marshal and his Irish wolfhound wandering the post-apocalyptic wasteland. The series has been praised as a "cool cross between Justified and The Walking Dead."
Dr. Bradley subscribes to the philosophy that preparedness should always be motivated by love and concern, never by fear and paranoia. His practical approach to family preparedness has received widespread praise from individuals, emergency preparedness groups, and religious organizations around the world. He conducts seminars across the world, teaching individuals and families how to establish effective disaster preparedness plans.
