Summary: An excellent checklist for all beginning scuba divers
Comment: As a scuba instructor, I recommend this book to my students for their beginning library of diving books. It contains tips, techniques and reminders that are useful in the beginning of their scuba diving education and some helpful reminders for all scuba divers. Excellent for beginners and not bad for some more advanced divers to look over too...

Summary: Pive Like A Pro
Comment: Good information but save yourself the money and re-read your diving manual. Virtualy all the same information is in there. The book also suffers from poor editing. It's not a bad book just redundant if you have a PADI, NAUI, SSI, or other openwater divers manual.

Summary: Too vague
Comment: This book is more like a pamplet then an in-depth book; I read through it in about two hours. Most topics are covered in just a few paragraphs and offer no detailed examples/photos or graphics. I few good tips, but most are very general and based on common sense. One gem was on how you should avoid getting drunk before diving (da..). You will not feel like a pro after reading this. There are probably better and more in-depth books on diving technique.

Summary: Good for beginners
Comment: Good book for beginners. Not much depth to the topics covered that would be of much use to experienced divers. In fact, I don't think there was much in the book that is not covered in most basic dive course manuals.


Editorial Reviews:

Considering all there is to learn, and all the skills to be mastered, completing a basic scuba course in any format is an accomplishment of which any certified diver should be proud. However, now matter how good a diver you become, it seems there is always some skill, technique or procedure that can be improved.

The information included in the pages of this book can help new divers climb the steep learning curve we all must negotiate at the beginning of our diving careers. Even highly experienced divers may learn or relearn a tidbit of information they never knew or happened to forget. The contents include: 10 Ways to Safely Conserve Air, Secrets to Better Buoyancy Control, Ten Ways to Build Confidence, Ten Ways to Tune Your Gear, How To Get a Good (and Safe) Air Fill, Hot Tips for Diving Cool Waters, Seven Ways To Be a Better Buddy, Diving Fitness, Equipment Care And Maintenance, and Tips To Dodge The DCS bullet.
