The book is intended to be a reference source, for any healthcare provider, in the broad area of Emergency Preparedness. Because the world is so "closely connected" now, transportation and inter-net wise, perhaps this Book can be a tool to help us become better prepared as healthcare providers for these events...but what can we do to help us truly believe and live by "The Golden Rule...the principle of treating others as one wants to be treated"?
