Review: In Oceans Deep by Bill Streever

In Oceans Deep by Bill Streever

“I realized that what I had to write could no be limited to diving in the conventional sense out instead would tackle what I came to think as humanity presence beneath the waves. “

Bill Sheever tackles the topic of the ocean from the history of not only the ocean exploration but human's presence in the ocean's deep from the beginning of free diving and the first small manned submarines to the current explores and exploration. You can see the love that Mr. Sheever has for the oceans, ocean exploration and human interaction with the ocean and his knowledge of this topic and a deep understanding that only comes from experience of years of doing exactly what he is writing about. His knowledge and understanding of the ocean and human exploration makes this science and history in his writing more fact than fiction and his sharing those experiences allow the reader to go along with him and the other ocean explores in this book. I recommend this book for both teachers, students or even non-academic with interest in the past and present of ocean exploration, oceanography or even ocean archaeology. The resource information alone in this book is a worthwhile investment and allows you to expand the knowledge you already have in the field of ocean exploration.
