Product Description
Whether in the balmy waters of a tropical coral reef or the icy cold of the North Sea, scuba diving is a magical way to explore the world beneath the waves. The only YMCA/Scuba-sanctioned guide, "Scuba Diving" includes all the information needed to start this exciting sport. It reviews the standard in all certification courses, with chapters on gear, diving planning, safety and first aid, the science of diving, diving techniques, the underwater environment, and using dive tables and computers. It also introduces divers to skills such as underwater photography, navigation, wreck diving, night diving and cold-water diving.

SCUBA newbie rates this one highly, 23 Jan 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Scuba Diving (Trailside Guides) (Paperback)
I checked out several books targeting beginners. This looks like a keeper. This book is the only one sanctioned by the YMCA for its classes.

Best SCUBA book --5 stars., 14 Dec 2011
By E Greene - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Scuba Diving (Trailside Guides) (Paperback)
Scuba Diving by Karen Berger is funny, easy-to-understand, packed with useful information. I was reluctant to relearn how to dive, until I read her USER-FRIENDLY practical, wonderfuly illustrated book. Berger is a very skilled writer with a terrific sense of humor. I read her book in one day and confidently passed my refresh dive course. Other dive books on my shelf are dry, boring and intimidating. This is the only book to buy!
