Most books about scuba diving are written by instructors with good content. But Darcy Kieran gives you a 360-degree view from his experience as an instructor trainer and owner/manager of dive shops, dive equipment wholesalers, dive boats, scuba diving university programs, and dive resorts.
This handbook won't teach you how to scuba dive – you must get in the water for that! But you will know exactly what to do before registering for a scuba course.
The author shares typical mistakes that would cost you time and money and, in many cases, provide you with such a bad experience that you would want to stop scuba diving. This book gives you a chance to learn from others' mistakes! It will help you understand how the dive industry operates so you can navigate it to your advantage.
Do not risk missing out on a lifetime of legendary scuba diving adventures because many dive professionals you'll encounter are not always professional. Instead, learn how to be the leader of your own adventure!
