This review is from: United States Navy Diving Manual, Revision 4, Including March 2001 Change A (over 400 new or revised pages) (CD-ROM)

Every serious diver, every diving medical specialist, every hyperbaric specialist must have this complete, excellent reference. I recommend the CD ROM because the paper volumes are massive (and much more expensive). The book contains an excellent history of diving, a comprehensive discussion of diving physiology, as well as the various technical aspects of diving, mixed gases, diving medicine and others. Included are check lists, photos, diagrams, etc. This is a world-class reference.
