The ROV Manual: A User Guide for Remotely Operated Vehicles 2nd Edition

Comprehensive but I felt cheated because the book came in black and white. Many of the pictures would be clearer to reader if it comes with color.

Great book to overview ROV technology

Would be better to have more information on application process and procedure in real world i.e: Oil & Gas and other industry.

Such a nice book!

Great detail on a lot of subjects except the most important ones concerning ROVs.

I've just finished this book and it took a lot of effort to get through it. It's very comprehensive but doesn't fill the gap in the market for an introductory book to the ROV arena. It could do with a section on hydraulics in the same manner as the section on fibre optics. For someone already working in the field, it would certainly fill in a lot of possible knowledge gaps but a much more basic volume for the absolute rookie, assuming a certain level of technical knowledge, is certainly a distinct necessity and I don't think this book covers that.However, its contents are very well researched and put together and there are a lot of very useful tables, drawings and photographs that illustrate key ideas, facts and concepts. Certainly a good book for anyone already in or contemplating entry into the ROV field and well worth reading but it drops a star for not putting itself in the rookie's place enough.
