Praise for the previous editions:

"Packed with beautiful images and an easy-to read style, this book is both educational and inspirational." Scuba Diving Magazine

"In its third edition, The Underwater Photographer has evolved to become almost a standard work of reference. Martin Edge has developed his writing skills over the years, and we recommend this volume for anyone pursuing the now-less-than black art of underwater photography, especially with digital image-gathering in mind." DIVE Magazine

"...let us just say that this is THE best underwater photo technique book on the market... PERIOD!" DIVER Magazine
