4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent choice., 18 Dec 2007
By Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
I wonder how many serious and dedicated scuba divers actually continue to put off their natural progression from recreational scuba diving to the more advanced techniques of technical diving? Personally, I delayed that progression for far too long. As a professional underwater photo-journalist who specialises in shipwreck research, however, I find myself being drawn more and more towards deeper and deeper wrecks - if only because these are the wrecks that divers want to know more about.

My first choice in books when commencing that transition to more technical expertise, was this book by John Lippman. A number of people have commented that it is out-of-date - but it is only out-of-date if your own expertise has already progressed beyond the level which this book seeks to teach.

Any diver who is seriously thinking about technical diving but who has yet to make the first move in that direction should read this book. Yes, things have moved on since this book first appeared in 1992 - but that does not make the information inaccurate. It simply allows the modern diver to regard this book as the first step towards an exciting extension of their diving career.

Other books (including other books by this author) will then take that diver even further into the realms and complexities of serious deep technical diving.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few top-notch advanced diving books, 21 Aug 1998
By A Customer
It's difficult to find good, complete information on advanced diving technique. Lippmann covers the subjects needed by anyone visiting the deeper waters - physics & physiology, gear, gases and guidelines. If you're starting to ask the technical questions that weren't covered in your OW & AOW books, here ya go...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for those considering deeper diving, 17 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This book provides loads of detail of what is involved in deeper diving. It also goes into a lot of detail about the dangers and how to recognise and avoid the affects of deeper diving. This is a must for anyone who likes to read about cause and affect invoved in diving.
