The INCLUDETEXT field is quite safe to use and suffers none of the stability/corruption issues of Master Documents.

You can see where all fields are in a document by turning on field shading under File|Options|Advanced>Show Document Content.

A bonus of using INCLUDETEXT fields is that you can update the source documents from the destination document - simply make the edit then press Ctrl-Shift-F7.
