Brazil May 3, 2010 H. C. Guimaraes Nt (Sao Paulo, Brazil) Excelente proposta da DAN. Sempre levo nos meus mergulhos (200+). Esse é o tipo de material que esperamos nunca usar. Mas em caso de emergência pode fazer muita diferença.
Good tool. One I hope I'll never use October 22, 2009 Alejandro Gonzalez Morales (Barcelona, Spain) It is smaller than I thought, therefore really easy to carry on your BC. It is sturdy and really easy to read and follow. The index makes finding the information you need really easy. I'll give it a read once every diving season and pack it along with the BC, hoping I'll never have to reach for it.
Not worth the money paid. August 5, 2009 Marc Findlay (Joliet, Illinois United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is basically a very expensive simple first aid guide. If this book only cost $5.00 or less it would be worth the money. This book goes in depth about assessment, which is great, but it does not tell you what to do about items that are found abnormal in the assessment. The information in this book is very vague. I would recommend a better book. This book does fit nicely into a log book binder.
informative but very small January 13, 2008 gmoney Outstanding product produced. I was just taken back on how small the book was. the picture was just looked bigger than it is. Other than that it has great resources.
Covers it all November 28, 2007 Sheldon (Aspen, CO United States) This little book pretty much covers anything that can happen to a diver, and is specific to diving injuries from drowning to the bends to stings and bites. The best thing about this book, aside from the material, is that it is completely made of plastic and is impervious to water so you don't have to worry about taking it on deck with you or even carrying it in your BCD pocket.
If you forgot the information in that CPR class you took years ago this will refresh your memory.
