This is the sixth printing of this highly popular book. Described by Rob Farb as "the best nuts and bolts book about diving physiology out there" and acclaimed as the most readable and understandable text on the subject, Diving Physiology in Plain English will elevate most divers to a level of understanding of their sport that they probably had not previously hoped for.

The book discusses all the key areas in terms that are intelligeble to the lay reader but that do not abandon the underlying science. The main subject headings are:

+Decompression Tables and Computers
+Immersion Effects
+Diving in Cold and Heat
+Gender Facts and Folklore
+Diving Injuries
+Exercise for Divers
+Nutrition for Divers
