What frustrates me is that in any emergency--ranging from something as prosaic as a flat tire to something as singular as the End of the World As We Know It--the key to success and perhaps survival is going to be figuring out how to make do and adapt to what's available, and that's the sort of thing that seems very hard to learn from books. This one does a pretty good job of putting out some ideas, however, and will be a worthy addition to my survival shelf.
