I think it’s an essential book for anyone doing scuba diving beyond ocasional recreational dives once a year. The only thing I’d like to have seen was a deeper dive into the reasons or details of the problem scenarios. I’ve spoken to one of the story authors in the book and what he shared with me had much more detail and nuance as to why the incident occurred. Otherwise, some of the stories left me asking a lot of follow up questions.

Must read for serious divers.
Stories from experienced divers who nearly died.

Loads of great stories of really good divers almost coming to grief.
Reads well just as a, ‘wow that’s a good story’ kind of book, but what I really liked is that there are so many things to learn from these episodes and incorporate into my own diving.
