This book appeals to me for a few reasons…..
It is a concise no nonsense approach to diving medicine for everyone from diving novices to hyperbaric physicians (I have seen both groups use this book). I reckon it is a must for all doctors who handle or do medicals for divers. The main problem with this book is that it comes in paper back and my private copy is now deteriorating from overuse. Its that kind of book that you just keep going back to.
For the price and breadth of knowledge (including spiteful fish/shark attacks the facts as well as decompression illness and medical conditions that disqualify diving) there is no book than can come close.
