Sandra Poucher Awesome book! I just finished this book and really enjoyed it. The author has done some amazing things and there were times I felt like I wanted to read more about her life. She hit the nail on the head with her observations about being a female cave diver (does this also apply to any technical field?) No matter your accomplishments, as a woman cave explorer you are viewed under a very critical and typically patronizing lens. Amazingly, there is little support among the few women active in the exploration and scientific cave-diving realm - perhaps we are too competitive? Excellent book! I'd love a follow-up on how things are now in the cave environments of the Caribbean.
