This book fills the gap between
sport diving texts and the complex medical/commercial texts. Coverd are such topics as
physiological and mental preparation for deep diving, stress, nitrogen narcosis, oxygen
toxicity, staged decompression, deep diving equipment, self-sufficiency, dive computers,
contigency planning, nitrox, mixed gas, dive tables, and decompression sickness and
treatment. Included are many first hand accounts of the authors and other top experts such
as Dr. Bill Hamilton, Tom Mount, Sheck Exley, Jim Lockwood, Jim Bowden and Dick Rutkowski.

The International Textbook of Mixed Gas Diving
By Heinz K. J. Lettnin
The use of mixed gases and modern dive techniques have
opened completely new dimensions for underwater exploration. The International Textbook of
Mixed Gas Diving gives a comprehensive overview of up-to-date diving technology. This
textbook provides a thorough discussion of the wide variety of problem areas currently of
concern for deeper diving. Mixed gas equipment and procedures are explained in a clear and
concise style. Theories, techniques, and applications of deep diving from around the world
make this volume an international textbook.

The
Simple Guide to Rebreather Diving
By Steve Barsky, Mike Ward, Mark Thurlow
Rebreathers let you dive deeper and stay underwater longer.
For the underwater photographer, wreck diver or small boat owner, rebreathers offer new
diving adventures. The Simple Guide to Rebreather Diving takes the mystery out of
rebreathers and explains this exciting technology in clear-cut language. If you are new to
rebreather diving, this book is a must. Topics covered include; Brief History of
rebreathers, Applications, Hazards of rebreather diving, Common Elements of rebreathers,
Fully closed circuit systems, Semi-closed circuit systems and Accessories.
Trimix Diver Student Workbook
At last a detailed workbook addressing the concerns and safe dive
skills and knowledge both practical and theoretical to ensure maximum safety on Trimix
dives. Specialized dive planning, planning equivalent narcosis depth, identifying the
correct PO2 for various depth from 1.2 to 1.5 PO2
combined with new charts to take the guess work out of mix selection make this an
unparalleled approach to Trimix diving. New tables are included with the oxygen limits
listed on each dive. These tables provide additional safety by providing a range of
variability in both the helium content and the oxygen percentage. Authored by Tom Mount
& Kevin Gurr this material will prove to be the foundation of Mixed Gas Diving.
