The ABCs of EMP: A Practical Guide to Both Understanding and Surviving an EMP

This book is very informative and I plan to institute many of the suggestions.

This is an interesting and informative read. Lots of useful information. Everyone, every one, especially our leaders should read this book and take it to heart Highly recommend.

A very informative book with some good updated information. I gave it four stars instead of five because of all the typos in the text. The book definitely needed a proofreader.

This provides a lot of basic, and more advanced, information about an EMP such as: Just what is an EMP? How easy it is to generate an EMP? What will life be like after an EMP? How can I prepare for an EMP?

the book gives a very nice discussion of EMP; it's origins and effects. There is a lot of information for effective preparations, helpful equipment, etc. It also has insight into the scary vulnerability of our power grid. Overall it is very useful whether you are a prepper or not.

Very informative

It's an ok read, I'm not unhappy that I read it.

The only reason that I gave the ABC’s of EMP five stars is because there wasn’t a ten star option.My interest and concern regarding EMP spans at least two decades and yet I experienced several epiphanies while reading this book.Compared to other publications I have read, Mr. Yago does not leave you hanging with undefined terms and abbreviations. Coupled with extensive end notes, this easy to read book becomes a long term resource that you can use to better understand and thus better prepare for such an eventuality.In the first few chapters, the author describes in relative detail the extensive vulnerabilities of the USA and breaks it down by categories like communications, power grid, military, banking, etc. He then concludes this part of the book by describing what one’s life could be like if you decide to do nothing and then turns the corner and provides you with an overview of what you CAN do.The author then dedicates the next twenty-three chapters to what the average person can do at a reasonable cost to weather the storm. This category-by-category review provides real-life, practical solutions for a world without electrical power and all the conveniences that depend upon it. And these are NOT just some theoretical ideas that you might try. These are practical solutions that the author has personally developed and used and then provides the references and descriptions of each one.The actual “cherry on the top” of this book is in the forward to the book written by none other than the godfather of the effort to convince our government of the necessity to harden our electrical grid, Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, Executive Director of the EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security, and Director of the United States Nuclear Strategy Forum.If you are concerned about the health and safety of your family and friends in a grid-down event, this book is packed with life-saving ideas.Everyone should read this book!
