Textbook of Cruise Medicine

MHS is the proud publisher of the second edition of Cruise Medicine, the only textbook and reference especially written for cruise physicians, nurses, and medical administrators. With 490 pages of contributions by 19 authors - experienced cruisers all - and 66 illustrations it fills a much needed place in the cruise ship physician's library.

Excerpts from the review in Annals of Emergency Medicine 36(1):88:
     ``...provides a rich source of information for those newcomers considering cruise medicine ... sections focus on environmental problems and toxicology specific to marine medicine ... points out the limitations and difficulties of diagnosing and treating critically ill patients at sea ... authors reveal many tricks of the trade ... a great source for physicians who are entertaining the idea of practicing cruise ship medicine..."
