Should be.

The Royal Navy Diving Manual [Abbreviated, I think!] used to be available
from H.M.S.O.  [The number was BR.2806].  I still have a copy that - in part
- under the heading, 'PRECAUTIONS AGAINST SHARKS' quotes, "There is no
recorded attack by a shark on a Royal Navy dressed diver ....".  Now you
know where to buy your gear!!!
If you can track down a copy try, 'DEEP DIVING AND SUBMARINE OPERATIONS' by
R.H. Davis, of Siebe Gorman & Co..  It's, undoubtedly, one of the great
diving books of all time.  Scarce as hens teeth! OK! - it's outdated!  But
still worth the read.
Good Hunting.
