DESCRIPTION:
"An excellent book on a difficult subject" according to Tomas. An excellent book on a difficult subject. The author tends to use his own application to give examples which is not ideal, it would have been better to use more generic examples. But, all in all, this a book that should be present in all technical divers' and all dive instructors' book shelves.. but what I liked most is how it handles modeling This book is covering history, current approaches and future perspectives, but what I liked most is how it handles modeling. Very easy to read.. Flavio said Five Stars. A very professional and deep, book about deco theories and procedures. A must read for divers.
What makes this book truly stunning is that it is not only straightforward, easy to read and understand and free from technical jargon, but it also portrays the latest developments and controversial issues in technical diving. From the early history of experimental trial and error to the latest innovations and changes in the decompression arena, Deep Into Deco brings the science into sharp focus. Deep Into Deco is a comprehensive and well-written reference text that covers the various topics of decompression theory. Also, a grab-bag of additional points of interest that contribute to our current understanding of decompression t
A software developer with an interest in decompression modeling, Salama plans to implement computational algorithms based on credible research papers to prevent some pioneering work from fading into academic obscurity. Asser Salama, a technical diver and instructor, is founder of Tech Diving Mag and developer of Ultimate Planner decompression planning software. He has a bachelor s degree in engineering and a master s degree in business administration.
No diving collection is complete without this super overview book. I recommend this book for all divers from novice to technical expert because Asser Salama makes even the most difficult topics seem easy and understandable. Deep Into Deco is a stimulating read which covers almost every facet of diving from breathing to technical decompression. It certainly is a welcome addition to my dive library! --Jeffrey Bozanic, PhD, author of Mastering Rebreathers . --Bret Gilliam, founder of TDIAsser's book is the best general overview of decompression modeling I have seen. The information it contains is relevant to divers of all levels, from the occasional sport diver who wants to know more about how their dive computer works to the technical diver planning extended decompression dives. --Commander Joseph Dituri, US Navy Saturation Diving Offi
