If you could only read ONE book on decompression theory...

What would it be? Realistically, I am interested in assembling a list of all the good books out there. I've searched the archives, but a lot of the information is just so scattered.

So, help KKM put together a good spring/summer reading list.

Thanks,
KKM

That's the exact same question I asked Dr. Bill Hamilton last year at Wrecks. If I remember correctly, he recommended:

The Physiology and Medicine of Diving

Stand back.. it's pricey.

Any other thoughts...I know a lot of you out there have very good information on this. I am interested in hearing from you.

...But I did find some great information on all sorts of diving physiology on the 'net.

Check http://www.LCscuba.com, then click on "Talk" and "The Physics of Diving."

There's quite a bit of free info in there.

This book is really a good book but if u are not a doctor I don’t think it’s a good idea to read it. I think we should get and book that its less complicated than this one, and as Seajay said there is a lot of info on the net, that we don’t need to know more then this cos the diving physiology is easy and simple even if u had 10 books they will be talking about the same things , believe me.
