If you are responsible for the welfare of those who spend time in or around the water--as an aquatic manager, scuba diving instructor, firefighter, law enforcement officer, or emergency rescue worker--or if you're a water sport enthusiast yourself, then you need to know how to prevent and manage aquatic accidents. This potentially lifesaving guide shows you how.
