Mind Body & Soul Ezine Book Review: Crystal & Gem, an Eyewitness series book by Dorling Kindersley, in association with the Natural History Museum.Dorling Kindersley never fail to present first class information. Here we have high quality, full colour photographs for easy recognition of the most select of natural crystalline rocks. All are beautifully profiled with information that includes classifications, identifications, major varieties and collections, e.g., Quartz, diamond, beryl, opal, etc., with a section on metals, traditions, etc. A useful glossary at the back is provided. Don't miss it! It will make a perfect gift for those who love gemstones, or to add to your library of the Earth's most wonderful treasures!
