Diving and Subaquatic Medicine

Diving and Subaquatic Medicine is a concise and clinically authoritative guide to all aspects of diving medicine. It encompasses the full range of diving disorders exhibited by both amateur and professional deep sea divers, presenting each medical disorder from an historical, etiological, clinical, pathological, preventative and therapeutic perspective. Explanations are interspersed with relevant case histories, illustrations, boxed summaries and highlighted key points for rapid reference, whilst introductory chapters on physics, physiology, and equipment make the book invaluable reading for those new to the field. The new edition has been completely revised throughout to include the latest research and diving data, as well as important coverage of newly described diseases of diving, modern types of diving and diving equipment, and free and indigenous diving. Comprehensive appendices contain vital diving data.

A reference to clinical diving medicine. Written for doctors and paramedics who are responsible for the medical needs of divers both on or under the water, this new edition retains the strengths of its predecessors, with the emphasis still firmly on practical management. It features an improved section on the diving medical examination, changes to chapters on mortality statistics and drowning, new sections on habitat diving, breath-hold diving and technical diving, and many new illustrations.

Now in a larger and more attractive format, the third edition brings the presentation right up to date.  Over one-third of the chapters are either new or totally rewritten.  The new material covers diving fatalities, diving environments, the femalediver, psychological problems, long-term diving disorders, cardiac diseases in diving, submarine medicine, and drugs and diving.  Topics carried over from the previous edition have been heavily revised and edited for currency and completeness.  Despite the great changes, this new edition retains the strengths of its predecessors. The emphasis is still firmly on practical management.  The coverage is broad, with a perspective which ranges from this historical to the present, from the amateur to theprofessional; and which includes pathology, prevention and therapy of each disorder. Above all, the style is highly readable, with concise, authoritative explanations interspersed with relevant case histories.  The burden on the reader's memory is eased by summaries and revision aids.  Those who know the book will waste no time in acquiring this update;  those who do not will soon be convinced that this is a 'must' for their personal bookshelf.
