Book Description

0941332381 978-0941332385 December 5, 1994
The ability to communicate effectively under water is essential to safe diving. A misunderstanding between divers could mean the difference between life and death. This book expands standard "emergency signs" through the use of signs adapted from the hearing impaired. The signs are easy to learn, to use, and to understand. They will make diving a safer and more enjoyable experience.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not Worth It!, August 13, 2002
By 
"cswm" (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scuba Divers Sign Language Manual (Spiral-bound)
This low quality spiral bound notepad of cheap drawings contains some of the most ridiculous and non-intuitive signs I've ever seen. Some of them are just plain wrong, in my opinion. The 5% of the book that is of any value is, in my experience, common knowledge from basic open water training. I expected a book of signs that makes use of common expressions that transcend spoken language, at least in the western hemisphere, and can be easily understood by a buddy team that does not have much experience diving together. The book should be called The Smiths Sign Language Manual and not Scuba Divers Sign Language Manual because I think the authors are the only ones who understand it. In summary, I feel it's a poor attempt to facilitate communication underwater and is not worth the price!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful if your buddy studies it too., August 7, 2005
By 
Gershon (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scuba Divers Sign Language Manual (Spiral-bound)
The signs are all very intuative and very useful. Only issue is that your buddy really needs to know them too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Actual ASL (American Sign Language) Signs!, January 18, 2005
This review is from: Scuba Divers Sign Language Manual (Spiral-bound)
I use this book on all of my dive trips, it has really come in handy. The signs are adapted from ASL (American Sign Language) and they work topside too!
