Book Synopsis The Diver Who Fell from the Sky by : Simon Pridmore
Download or read book The Diver Who Fell from the Sky written by Simon Pridmore and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maverick, innovator, entrepreneur, environmentalist and sheer force of nature, Francis Toribiong would have been a unique and significant individual no matter where in the world he was born. As it turned out, he was born in the island nation of Palau in the Western Pacific at just the right time to apply his special set of skills and attributes to the task of helping his country find its place in the world. In the 1980s and 1990s, he arguably did more than anyone to build Palau's economy and help it develop into an independent, forward-looking nation. And, improbably, he achieved this via the sport of scuba diving. Francis Toribiong is a Pacific Islander like no other. He is the father of Palau tourism, a scuba diving pioneer, and an effective, tireless ambassador for both his country and its abundant marine and land resources. He was born poor and had no academic leanings. Yet he was driven to succeed by a combination of duty, faith, a deep-seated determination to do the right thing and an absolute refusal ever to compromise his values. For his whole life, he has been a devoted friend to strangers and an implacable opponent to anybody who, through malevolence or negligence, threatens Palau's considerable natural treasures. He has also been the perfect host to generations of scuba divers from all over the world, who have visited Palau to see those treasures for themselves. And, as well as all that, he was Palau's first ever parachutist - known throughout the islands as the Palauan who fell from the sky. They were speaking both literally and figuratively. He was so completely different from all of his contemporaries in terms of his demeanor, his ambitions and his vision, that it was as if he had come from outer space. Palau had never seen anybody quite like him and there was no historical precedent for what Francis Toribiong did. He had no operations manual to consult and no examples to follow. He wrote his own life. Francis Toribiong was the first Palauan ever to seek and seize the international narrative. No Palauan, in any context or field, had previously thought to go out into the world and say: - "This is Palau - what we have is wonderful. Come and see!" This is his astonishing story. With over 80 images from Francis' life and of Palau, both above and below the water. The pictures in the paperback are black and white. In the e-book, older pictures are black and white, newer ones are full colour.

Book Synopsis Women and Pressure by : Caroline E. Fife
Download or read book Women and Pressure written by Caroline E. Fife and published by Best Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and Pressure is a remarkable look at women's progress in the fields of diving and altitude. With content ranging from the history of women divers, combat pilots, and astronauts to the unique physiological characteristics of females working and playing in altered barometric pressure environments, this book is long overdue. Featuring contributions from 35 authors, many of whom are pioneers in their field, it represents a wide range of disciplines and offers a comprehensive dialogue about the effects of pressure on women. This book is a must-read for women divers, dive instructors, men who dive with women, and anyone involved in these fields.As an admirable collection of the current research and attitudes regarding the most frequent concerns of divers, instructors, and aviators, topics are explored on a level of seriousness and urgency. The essays included in this text contain crucial discussions of such relevant factors as: pregnancy, the menstrual cycle and decompression illness, decompression illness susceptibility compared with men, fitness to dive, thermal tolerance, equipment, legal issues, and women in the workplace. The pool of information in this book displays the serious nature of a text addressing the past, present, and future of issues of consequence in relation to the well-being of the women involved. From the Foreword: It is obviously important to have a good understanding of how women's physical and psychological responses might differ from those experienced by men. I believe that this book is a scholarly attempt to answer these questions, and I hope that it will make a valuable contribution to the health and welfare of women engaged in these highly specialized occupations. -HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh "Over the years, different data, theories, and hypotheses have been proffered, but there has never been an authoritative compendium on these issues. . .This is perhaps the only work in existence that, in one place, provides physicians, physiologists, and other interested dive and aerospace professionals with what's broadly known about the subject of women in diving and aerospace." -Karl Shreeves, The Undersea Journal, 2010 Proceeds from this book will go to the Diving Diseases Research Center to support further diving research.
