Book excerpt: "Reflecting the increasing military importance of health and fitness in the recruit population, the Borden Institute has released 'Recruit Medicine', the latest book in the 'Textbooks of Military Medicine' series. Aimed at all those involved in providing care and determining policy for military recruits, this volume covers important aspects of recruit medicine, such as the medical qualifications process; health promotion and environmental risk management; chronic diseases such as asthma; injury prevention and management; communicable illnesses; behavioral, dental, and women's health; and recruit mortality. Recruit medicine combines aspects of epidemiology, preventive medicine, primary care, orthopedics, gynecology, psychiatry, and dentistry. The textbook emphasizes the need for healthcare professionals to clearly understand how these factors affect recruits' ability to perform to standard. 'In times past, military medicine has often underappreciated the value of recruit medicine. The military can no longer afford to do so. Because of the rising costs of entering recruits into the training base, and the requirement that they immediately contribute to the combat effectiveness in their first unit of assignment, military medicine must develop a dynamic approach to the use of our knowledge of recruit medicine. As the accessions process transforms volunteer citizens into soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines, military medicine must help maximize every recruit's chance of attaining military standards in health and fitness. A healthy and fit recruit becomes a healthy and fit soldier, sailor, airman, or marine, ' said Army Surgeon General Lieutenant General Kevin C. Kiley. Colonel Bernard L. DeKoning, MD (MC, US Army) the book's senior editor and Assistant Surgeon General (Force Projection), added, 'Just as the military's center of gravity is the individual soldier, sailor, airman, or marine, the individual's center of gravity is good health. An individual in poor health cannot withstand the rigors of combat or stability operations, nor can he or she properly transform information into action. Our sons and daughters who volunteer to protect the nation deserve the very best in military medicine from the moment they choose to enlist.'"--The publisher.

Download or read book Medicine and Victory written by Mark Harrison and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicine and Victory is the first comprehensive account of British military medicine in the Second World War since the publication of the official history in the early 1950s. Drawing on a wide range of official and non-official sources, the book examines medical work in all the main theatres of the war, from the front line to the base hospital. All aspects of medical work are covered, including the prevention of disease, and the disposal and treatment of casualties.Harrison argues that the medical services played a major role in the Allied victory enabling the British Army to keep a higher proportion of troops in the field than its opponents. Assuming no previous knowledge of either medical or military history, Medicine and Victory provides an accessible introduction to a vitally important, yet too often neglected aspect of the Second World War.

Download or read book Military Medicine written by Jack E. McCallum and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-02-21 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume highlights the people and scientific developments in military medicine through the ages, concentrating on medical advances that changed both warfare and societies at home. Thanks to advances in field medicine and improved mobility and efficiency of medical units, the death rate of soldiers injured during battle has dramatically declined in the last 100 years. Nowadays, with forward medical stations operating close to battle lines and medical transports (ground and air) at hand, injured soldiers survive their battle wounds. Military Medicine: From Ancient Times to the 21st Century provides expert coverage of the key role medical advances and practices have played in the evolution of warfare, and how many of those advances and practices have been put to work saving and improving civilian lives as well. Military Medicine surveys the development of military medicine from its prehistoric origins through modern threats and practice. That coverage is followed by over 200 of alphabetically organized entries with special emphasis placed on those areas with the most dramatic applications to civilian medicine, including triage and trauma management, treatment for infections, emergency surgical procedures, and more.
