Sinopsis

High Altitude Risks explores the serious dangers of venturing into mountainous environments, offering crucial knowledge for understanding, preventing, and responding to altitude-related illnesses and injuries. The book highlights the physiological challenges of reduced oxygen levels, which can lead to Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE), and High-Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE). It also addresses cold-related injuries like frostbite and hypothermia, which pose significant threats in mountain environments, emphasizing that understanding these risks is vital for anyone venturing above moderate altitudes.

 
The book’s approach is structured into three key sections: the physiological effects of altitude, cold-related injuries, and evidence-based first aid protocols. Readers gain insights into how reduced oxygen impacts the body, the mechanisms behind cold injuries, and essential intervention techniques such as oxygen administration and descent strategies. It emphasizes how proactive prevention strategies and effective first-aid techniques are crucial for mitigating risks and promoting safer experiences in challenging terrains.

    Jayne was raised to believe she could have everything. Child, career, relationship, even a life in Paris. So why does she feel like a monster?

    Great Patient One

    This book is a sequel to Rude Awakenings which began the account of a six-month epic journey by two Englishmen, a monk and layman, around the Buddhist holy places in India. Rude Awakenings was a great adventure story. 
    While the second part of the journey still had its share of adventure, and some amazing encounters with wildlife including tiger, the novelty of the endeavour had worn off, and the two pilgrims came face to face with both their own and the other’s deeper humanity. 
    Thus Great Patient One is, for both Ajahn Sucitto and Nick, the more valuable of the two accounts, as in this volume they share their deeper lessons and the powerful resolution of the journey they both experienced at its end. 
    “Just as this pair of travellers were challenged, inspired, and transformed by their journey, we find ourselves similarly changed.“ Ajahn Amaro, Abbot of Amaravati Buddhist Monastery
