註釋Adventure travel, whether in the rain forests of Brazil or the jungles of Belize, can be filled with risk and sometimes life-or-death situations. Here is a complete guide on how to cope with and survive the unique and often deadly challenges of a jungle excursion. Written by a seasoned veteran of over 75 expeditions, this book will teach you everything you need to know on staying alive in the jungle. Learn the different types of tropical environment you'll encounter (from rain forests to swamps); what type of gear you'll need; how to effectively combat traveler's diarrhea and malaria; the do's and don'ts of interacting with unknown tribal civilizations; group dynamics in exotic environments or extreme circumstances; how to cope with every type of hazard, both physical (arthropods, plants, reptiles) and psychological; what to do if you get separated from civilization, and what steps you can take to increase your odds for survival and rescue. --From publisher description.
