Rezension zu „Benett and Elliott's Physiology and Medicine of Diving “
"Physically the book is a treat. Handsome and well presented, the layout is straight-forward and elegant, with high-quality line drawings and tables. The figures are particularly well rendered, with clarity aided by the avoidance of color...In summary, Bennett & Elliott's Physiology and Medicine of Diving remains a benchmark of texts in the field I thoroughly recommend it as an essential reference for any diving medicine facility and suggest that many individual diving physicians and scientists will wish to secure a personal copy." -Respiratory Care-April 2004, Vol.49 No.4
Pressezitat
"To my understanding the book encompasses all of today's best knowledge about the physiology and medicine of diving. I'm fully convicted that you will find this new edition impossible to give up on." Dr. Peter HJ Mueller, European Journal of Underwater and Hyperbaric Medicine, March 2003does a reviewer have the opportunity to state that the book he is considering is a landmark in the field with which it deals."BRITISH JOURNAL OF INDUSTRIAL MEDICINE
one concerned in any way with divers, especially when faced with the steadily spreading informed and expert legislation to improve the safety of diving operations, should be without this book at his elbow for constant reference."JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY FOR UNDERWATER TECHNOLOGY
this new edition, Bennett & Elliott solidifies its position as the standard work in its field. This volume is comprehensive and authoritative, the information current, the presentations generally straightforward and clear."UNDERSEA BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH SOCIETY
