Abstract
|
:
|
This book is not a conventional review of diving physiology. I have followed this planat times in order to aid the reader, who I hope is often an untergraduate or graduate stu- dent, the nonspecialist, and the layman, in appreciating to some degree the level of dissatisfaction or skepticism about certain areas of research in diving physiology.
