  1. Is the book Total Immersion by Terry Laughlin a good book on swimming technique? Are there
    others better?

    Seems good to me.

    John I appreciate your interest in Total Immersion. I wrote that in 95 and a great deal about our
    teaching process has been updated since than. Simon & Schuster will publish an updated/revised
    version next April. But you can read free excerpts on all the books I've published since then at
    www.totalimmersion.net/free-books.html Happy laps, Terry

    I have it and read it. I like it, especially for a beginner to intermediate swimmer, it has a lot of
    great advice. Once you get to more advanced levels, you'll probably wind up fine tuning the basics
    you learned in TI, and adjusting it to your own body style. I'd recommend the book.

  6. Thanks, but I already have a copy...just wanted to know about it before I 'immerse' myself in it.
