Professional Survival Solutions - James Shepherd-Barron

Written by former peacekeeper and overseas aid worker James Shepherd-Barron, Professional Survival Solutions is a practical field manual built from firsthand experience in some of the world's most dangerous environments. Rather than relying on theory, the book draws on real situations encountered in disaster zones and conflict regions, offering straightforward advice for travellers, humanitarian workers, journalists, security personnel and anyone operating far from the comforts of everyday life.

Covering everything from wilderness survival and emergency medicine to earthquakes, kidnappings, bomb threats, defensive driving and crisis management, the book packs an extraordinary range of skills into an accessible handbook. Whether it's navigating remote terrain, responding to natural disasters or handling high-risk situations, Professional Survival Solutions is an engaging and refreshingly practical guide shaped by hard-earned experience rather than classroom instruction.
