Format:Paperback
If you are thinking of taking up scuba diving this is a great book to take a look at and will help you learn about scuba diving.It covers the equipment and more importantly the dangers associated with scuba diving plus a wide range of subjects all associated with scuba diving. Well worth a look.

I bought this book to do some book learning before a diving holiday, hoping it might give me some more background info and be a bit less patronising and American than the PADI handbooks. Although it is written much better than PADI's books it gives only the most basic information. If you have dived before and have some interest in the diving media then there will be little worthwhile information here for you. If, however, you are completely new to diving and want everything explained in one place in a succinct and unpatronising way then this may be a useful book. The seller I bought it from was very cheap and delivered promptly.
A good way to orient yourself in the world of diving but of little use beyond that.

I purchased this book as an adjunct to getting back into diving. While the book is nicely formatted with plenty of pictures, the depth of information was poor. This was not worth my investment of time and money.
