Diving
in Darkness
Martyn Farr
Written
with a minimum of technical jargon, this book is a significant addition to the
literature on diving in an overhead environment, with extensive coverage of
those areas which are all too often passed over in more general works. It will
dispel misconceptions and myths by providing a clear, concise and modern
overview of the essential equipment, skills and techniques required to dive in
caves, mines, wrecks and beneath ice.
With a foreword by cave diver Jill Heinerth, Diving in
Darkness covers equipment, line-laying techniques, dealing with stress, dive
planning, communications and air management; indeed, every aspect of the sport,
with appendices on special situations in wrecks and beneath ice. Martyn Farr is
the award-winning author of the acclaimed book The Darkness Beckons and has
distilled more than thirty years of experience into his latest work. A cave
diver of international renown with a string of discoveries to his name, Martyn
now trains divers in the overhead environment from his base in South Wales, UK.
Illustrated in colour throughout, this is a readable
book that will appeal to divers and cavers alike. Published in softback with a
laminated cover, Diving in Darkness is packed with 170 photographs and diagrams
throughout its 128pp. It is available from all good caving and diving outlets.
