(More customer reviews)Tom Workman has done his homework. While he personally has been involved with hyperbaric safety for a very long time, he still gathered together a group who collectively has a wealth of experience in hyperbaric safety. As the former staff liaison for the Technical Committee on Hyperbaric & Hypobaric Facilities, I had the privilege of working with (former) Lt. General Workman. Not only did he chair the committee, he made certain that experts in various aspects of hyperbaric safety were appointed to help develop and refine fire safety standards for hyperbaric facilities. He has taken the subject of safety in general a big step forward by tapping these and other experts, and provided them with a podium to help teach others about hyperbaric safety. The result is a very comprehensive book on the subject. Operating hyperbaric facilities is a hazard in and of itself. The NFPA standard on the subject has help over the past 25 years to reduce the risk from fires immensely. Mr. Workman's new book will be of equal help for users, researchers and manufacturers in reducing the other hazards associated with hyperbaric operations. I thus recommend this book without any hesitation. Signed, Burton R. Klein, PE Burton Klein Associates Newton, MA (former staff liaison to the NFPA TCC on Health Care Facilities - NFPA 99)
