"Chemical Hazards" by Bryce Kinnaird serves as a comprehensive survival guide for chemical hazards. The book is designed to educate individuals with limited knowledge on these topics about the dangers posed by industrial chemicals, especially in urban environments where accidents involving transportation or industrial facilities can lead to serious chemical spills or releases. It covers essential topics such as understanding chemical hazards, preparing for emergencies, finding accurate information, using protective equipment, decontamination procedures, basic first aid for chemical exposure, safeguarding homes from contamination, and strategies for evacuation. The author, drawing from his extensive experience as a CBRN specialist in the US Army, offers practical advice and emphasizes the importance of preparation, proper training, and adherence to official guidelines to ensure personal and family safety in the event of a CBRN disaster.
