In-depth review of physics applied to diving
Obviously written for readers with a sound scientific background, this book presents a quasi exhaustive review of physical principles applied to diving. Mathematical data are fully presented. The problem, as usual with B.R. Wienke publications, is that the presentation is quite "dry", written in a very cursive, non pedagogical way. You will often need to take...

Diving for the Physicist
This book may benefit a physicist but probably offers little benefit to a diver or dive instructor. It has been a while since my math and physics classes and I found this volume daunting. If elementary particel interacton, hydrodynamics or maxwell equations are of interest to you then get this book. If you looking for usefull dive information or explanations look...

In-depth review of physics applied to diving,
By Patrick NOEL (pnoel@club-internet.fr) (Paris, FRANCE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Diving Physics and Applications (Diversification series) (Spiral-bound)
Obviously written for readers with a sound scientific background, this book presents a quasi exhaustive review of physical principles applied to diving. Mathematical data are fully presented. The problem, as usual with B.R. Wienke publications, is that the presentation is quite "dry", written in a very cursive, non pedagogical way. You will often need to take your time and to read very slowly and carefully to follow the author. Leaving that aspect aside, the book is a real sum of what you need to know if you want to dive with mathematical awareness ...

This book isn't exactly a leisurely reading book, but if you're interested in knowing just how everything works it will do the job.

Vary informative! Covers every aspect of scuba dive physics. All you need to use this book is a PHD in physics. Not your basic how to book.
