'Anyone who wants to take their dive-planning beyond “using common sense” should find this book a considerable asset'-- Divernet;
'This book is a good reminder for those of us with a lifetime of experience to reconsider our day to day diving practices and for those who are new to this exciting activity to take heed and make yourself aware of all the factors making your dive a safe one.... well written and precise'-- Scubaverse;
'In a way, the book is a little self-study course on how to plan and execute your dives more safely... divided into two main parts: Part I, which covers theory and examples, and a smaller Part II, which covers some analysis tools in the form of Word templates and Excel spreadsheets that can be downloaded for free via a link or QR code. Some of the files are simple reminders or checklists, others are risk assessment forms, another is a template for a dive plan, and so on. No complicated or expensive software, just useful tools.'-- X-Ray Mag.
