Budimu mBupita Buanga: Bansonsolodi; Budimu mBupita Buanga: Baleleshi; Prevenir Vaut Mieux Que Guerir.  M. Barad and Kelsey Martin, Catholic Press, Kananga, Zaire, 1982. These are three training and reference manuals for an integrated public health program Dr. Martin and I initiated in a rural zone of 100,000 people as Peace Corps volunteers in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo). The Tshiluba versions are for the use of village childcare workers and midwives, respectively. The consolidation of the two, in French, is for the use of rural nurses and for training programs elsewhere in the DRC.
