"Workshop Wound Care", part of the Lost Art Press pocket-book series, gets right to what you need to know when faced with common workshop injuries, from lacerations and puncture wounds to material in the eye. The author, Dr. Jeffery Hill, is an emergency room physician and active woodworker who presents the information so that non-medical readers easily understand it.
It is a field manual, not a medical textbook, organised so you can quickly find what you need when you have cut, burned or crushed something. It also shows that the first aid supplies you need are neither exotic nor expensive, and helps you build a proper first aid kit for the workshop.
