Nuclear War Survival Skills Updated and Expanded 2022 Edition Regarding Ukraine Russia and the World: The Best Book on Any Nuclear Incident Ever ... New Methods and Tools As New Threat Emerge

I am a few chapters into this book and all I can say is it is well worth the hype! I have learned a phenomenal amount of information in the first 50 odd pages. If you have ever questioned what it would be like to live through a nuclear incident, what you’d need to build a shelter or just about nuclear bombs, radiation and radioactive ions in general, this book is for you! Packed full of information as the result of extensive research, it is great for people that love detail but don’t want to be dragged down by too much dull and complicated technical information. Even if Nuclear war isn’t high on your interest list, it has great general prepping/survival information on food storage, water, shelter etc. it is probably my favourite read in a long time and I am so glad I made the purchase.

Great book, good info, the book assumes everyone reading it must be American. Serious typo on page 113(H) in regards to Thyrosafe dosages for adults. It states 1x65mg dose required for adults. It's 2x65mg dose for adults. If you're buying Thyrosafe or IOSAT pills, read the product boxes for required doses, do not go by what's stated on page 113(H). Just saying.

Giving what is happening in the world right now, what has been happening, and what could happen in the near future - I decided it was time to invest and read up on that worst case scenario. To do that, I selected this "Nuclear War Survival Skills" book which has been updated to cover more recent world events. I'm not an expert in any survival skills by any means, but also not a complete novice. So I figured this textbook would be ideal to work through to understand what I needed to do and how to do it.In one regard, some of the book is interesting and does cover many aspects of survival (not just "nuclear" but also things like cold survival). I spent a lot of time exploring the contents and making footnotes of things to revisit, such as shelters and the practical ways of air circulation and so forth. Some of the information I knew already, much I did not know, so a definate learning experience. I don't completely agree with all the content and information, such as where it says to have "...a bottle of hypochlorite bleach for disinfecting water and utensils." I would use water sterilising tablets (multiple kinds online to choose from online) as I feel they are safer and more practical. What would happen if you accidently spilt your bottle of bleach? It's not a BIG deal, as somethings are down to personal preferance and what would work for you and what you have. I would have liked more information on safe guarding foodstuffs and what would be safe (and what would not be safe) to eat post nuclear. Things like milk would likely be unsafe due to cattle eating contained grass. However the book includes plenty of references and website for you to visit for more information, so this was apricated.My main issue, and one that really spoiled this book for me, is that it's poorly laid out and poorly printed with little attention being given to detail and consistency. Other reviewers have also mentioned this, and I agree that this "updated" book REALLY needs updated and reviewed again.The cover rightly states "updated and expanded 2022 edition" however the spine of the book says "2002" not "2022." Not sure if this is a typo or the author forgot to update the spine. The font and font sizes changes throughout the book which is annoying, distracting and again seems lazy. I first noticed after reading pages 14/15, then turning the page to find the size of the font smaller and the margins on the page much larger.Some of the diagrams are interesting and useful while others are very poor quality. Some like the one on page 180 are pretty much unreadable and therefore useless. Since this was the "updated" book, I somewhat expected the diagrams to be updated as well. As it stands many look like lower quality photocopies originally from the 70s or 80s. There are FAR better diagrams with better and more modern information available online. I'm really not sure how you can claim a book as updated when a lot of it doesn't seem to have changed?My issue with the older diagrams (apart from some being very low quality), is that some of the information and advice has moved on in the decades since they were drawn. Things like wick lanterns... pretty sure we'd all have better things available. I'm not sure why these diagrams haven't been updated, redrawn and so forth for this updated edition. All this makes me question how reliable the information is, and like another reviewer has highlighted - there are some typos and incorrect facts.It wasn't all bad, and like I said, I've learnt some useful information. But considering everything, the book looks and comes across as rushed, lazy, incomplete and not really updated. If the price stays low, then it might be worse considering. Otherwise, I'd suggest looking at the other more modern, more up to date and more consistent Nuclear Survival Guides.

I don’t know If the book is any good yet. Waiting for putin madness to erupt !!

Completely useless, avoid like the plague

I’m sure the info is good but picture quality really bad.I bought the 1987 edition by mistake, should have bought the *2022 edition*.Picture quality in 1987 is very bad. See comparison photos. Have returned the 1987. Looking forward to learning how to cope with war scenarios from the updated 2022 version.

Pages are in the wrong order making it difficult to read. The spine of the book also has the wrong date printed on it. Mine says 2002 instead of 2022 edition. Overpriced for the quality. So far good content though.

Just what I was looking for, probably designed for an American audience this book has a lot of useful knowledge and does what it says on the tin. I was born in the late 70s and the cold war stuff I remember and the UK and USA came close to nuclear exchange with Russia. It was in all the old films and now with Putin attacking the Ukraine because of the US and UK imposing sanctions and restrictions on Russia there is a big threat again. I am a carer to my elderly mother and I would want her and my fiancee to survive. Hopefully this book will help. Not many preppers in the UK but Noah built the arc to survive a flood and it worked. If you are worthy you will know what to do. Ignorance and acting like a sheep does not work. It's too late to get ready for a storm when the wind starts blowing. I bought this book at it is the latest up to date version and it is worth buying. Some of the stuff in it I have seen in other books like what materials absorb radiation and what type of detonation is used and the damage and radiation that comes from it. Valuable information if needed.
