NUCLEAR WAR SURVIVAL MANUAL, PROTECTION IN THE NUCLEAR AGE

Most counties and cities throughout the country have civil preparedness programs to reduce the loss of life and property in the event of major emergencies. These emergencies can range from natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods, or tornadoes to man-made emergencies like hazardous materials spills, fire, or nuclear attack. This booklet focuses on the ultimate disaster—nuclear attack. It discusses what individuals and families can do to improve their chances for survival in the event of a nuclear attack on the United States. Basic information is provided on the physical effects of a nuclear detonation, attack warning signals, and what to do before, during, and after an attack. Much has been done to address emergency needs unique to nuclear attack. Public fallout shelter space has been identified for millions. In addition, some warning and communications networks have been “hardened” against blast and electronic disruptions, preparations have been made to measure fallout radiation, and many local emergency services personnel have been trained in use of radiation detection instruments and other emergency skills.

Do not waste your time or money. The author would have youlocate a public shelter by the yellow and black Fallout sheltersign. When was the last time you've seen one?Civil defence ended a long time ago in this country. The bookisn't much more than a list of items to take to your friendly neighborhood shelter.There is exactly one small diagram illustrating the effects of a1mt surface burst. There is no information whatsoever on theeffects of terrain or any atmospheric conditions.Save your money and get better information from a Google search.Although I did find out a sign of an attack could be a strange bright white flash which one should not look at.

For those of you dedicated preppers, I think you would like looking through the book. For those of us just interested in what survival mean...at total waste of money
