Synopsis

Trek First Aid offers a practical guide to wilderness medicine, focusing on how to prepare for medical emergencies when you're far from immediate help. It addresses a critical need: equipping yourself with the right medical supplies and knowledge to handle situations where help is delayed. The book emphasizes that a standard first aid kit often falls short in the backcountry, where environmental injuries like altitude sickness or unique wound management challenges require specialized care. The book guides you through understanding remote medical care, selecting appropriate medical supplies based on wilderness medicine protocols, and adapting treatment strategies to resource-limited environments. It argues that a well-informed and thoughtfully curated medical kit, coupled with practical knowledge, is crucial for positive outcomes in wilderness emergencies. Starting with fundamental concepts like risk assessment and evacuation, the book progresses through essential medical supplies, common medical problems, and practical kit organization.

The Khmer Empire - History of...

Kelly Mass

Historians describe Cambodia as the Khmer State or the Angkorian Empire (Khmer:) from the 9th century to the 15th century, when it was a Hindu/Buddhist empire in Southeast Asia. The empire, which developed from the old societies of Funan and Chenla, governed and/or "vassalized" the majority of mainland Southeast Asia and parts of Southern China, covering from the suggestion of the Indochinese Peninsula northward to modern-day Yunnan province in China, and from Vietnam westward to Myanmar. The Khmer Empire was greater at its peak than the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire) that existed at the exact same period. 
The site of Angkor, in modern-day Cambodia, which worked as the Khmer capital throughout the empire's prime time, is maybe its most long-lasting tradition. The stunning Angkor structures, like Angkor Wat and Bayon, attest to the Khmer Empire's incredible strength and wealth, remarkable art and culture, architectural strategy, visual accomplishments, and the series of belief systems that it bought from in time. Angkor was the world's biggest pre-industrial cosmopolitan center between the 11th and 13th centuries, according to satellite photography. 
Let’s learn more about what we know about the happenings in this vast empire from so long ago.
