Staying Healthy When You Travel
I have used this book for several years of personal travel, it provides excellent advice and gives a good, balanced view of what the real risks are while travelling in far flung parts of the world. It is a great reference and will tell you when to panic and when things really are fine and you don't need to worry. It covers all the travel health issues that you may encounter (and many more), is well written and easy to read, not a stuffy old textbook on health. I recommend anyone planning to travel to get a copy, read it and take it with them.

Madagascar Misadventure
I listened to this story before recommending it to a teenager. It has that good mix of excitement and natural history that I like in a book. Read in a clear, warm voice, it's a good story to sit back and relax to.
I knew nothing about Madagascar until I heard the story, but I soon realised that the author really knows the island and by end I felt I'd been there.

Your Child Abroad: a travel health guide
“We found your book on traveling abroad with children extremely useful and inspiring.... thanks for writing such a wonderful resource for those of us that choose to travel with our kids. For all the discouraging advice we encountered when we told people we were traveling with 10 month old Ann, she was the healthiest one of the group! She loved the attention, and really thrived in the Malagasy forest.”
