David Espinosa, Editor-in-Chief, Sport Diver magazines Simon's wealth of knowledge as a divingeducator and experienced diver is evident within the content of thisbook. I especially like the 'Becoming a better diver' summaries with eachchapter, which are obviously the thrust of the book. A wise diver shouldcollect these into one document and study and understand them fully.
