Review: Above average but still has problems

Among the flood of survivalist "prepper" books this is better than many. It lacks in a few areas and has the usual self published formatting and grammatical errors. For someone who is going to remain in their home - if possible - and has absolutely no previous survivalist knowledge this book has something to offer. It misses some vital points with regard to a nuclear emergency - like iodine and avoiding dairy products. It also suggests that radiation will "die down". Fallout remains radioactive for as long as it is in place. It is dangerous unless it blows away, dissipates on the wind. It also suggests some things that would be impractical and doesn't always focus on the "budget" aspect with some suggestions. There is a huge cost difference between freeze dried and dehydrated but little nutritional difference.
