Medicine at War: Australia’s Involvement in Asia by F. B. Smith and Brendan O’keefe is a comprehensive textbook that blends medical history with the military narrative of Australia’s role in Southeast Asia and the Vietnam War. The 536‑page hardcover offers a thorough look at wartime medical practice and its broader regional impact.

Published by Allen & Unwin in 1994, this work is a valuable resource for scholars of medical, military and Australian history, as well as anyone interested in the complexities of war‑time healthcare. Its clear, scholarly style makes it suitable for both academic study and general reading.

The book is in good condition overall, with clean, tidy pages and a tight binding that has held up well. Foxing is present on the front and back inner covers and on the first and last pages, but the rest of the pages are unaffected.

The dust‑jacket shows a minor bump/crease along the top edge, and the volume comes from a smoke‑free home. No writing, dog‑ears, tears or stuck pages are evident, ensuring a pleasant reading experience.
