Written by divers for divers, this manual aims to provide all the information required for HSE air diving qualifications. The book is primarily aimed at trainees and this new edition, completely revised and updated, would also be of value to qualified divers. Part 1 covers the theoretical aspects, including physics, physiology, gas and other laws, calculations, decompression and chamber operations, while part 2 is concerned with underwater skills and practical aspects such as tools, explosives, boat handling and first aid. Richard Larn and Rex Whistler have both been directly involved in the training of divers, having been Managing Director and Training Director respectively of Prodive, the Commercial Diving Centre in Falmouth Docks, Cornwall.
