The Underwater Photographer, Fourth EditionThe Underwater Photographer, Fourth Edition

As someone who has persevered with underwater photography for nearly 15 years, I have bought many books on the subject in an attempt to learn why I keep making the same mistakes. Until reading Martin Edge's book I felt that only Howard Hall's book came close to showing me the answer.
Martin has managed to produce a book that is not only interesting and easy to read but really gets the message over. He covers all the aspects you need to know about, without the commonly made mistake of getting tangled up in the technical & equipment issues.

Moreover, its point of view is algorithmic and thus it provides both a history and a case history of work in complexity theory.
