Great book for dive signals
There are many signs in this book, from all the world. I was lacking cold water species but they're fewer of them compared to warm water species

Well detailed
Being a master diver for 25 years, it was time for me to review my underwater hand signs since I travel to far away locations. The pictures for the basic signals was informative. I did like the additional pictures for fish identifications which was an added treat. I did not realize that there were other signals for so many different fish species. i also bought the same app for my Kindle which I bring with me on my dive trips. well worth it.

Increase your hand vocabulary
Lots of hand signals to enhance your communication beyond the basics and fit into your diving style. While I enjoy the quietness of diving, it will be nice to be clearer with my underwater communication.

Tolles Buch für alle, die Unterwasser kommunizieren wollen
Ausführliches Buch mit einer Vielzahl an Handzeichen für Taucher. Super Inhalt, aber meines Erachtens etwas teuer. Es gibt auch einen QR-Code, um eine App herunterzuladen - allerdings nur für Geräte, die einen angeknabberten Apfel drauf haben, kein Android. Schade.
