good summary, bad odor
very good book for a summary of rocks and minerals. With that said, the book smells horrible! The chemical odor made me ill. I am placing it outside for now, in hopes of ridding its disgusting scent.

Great graphics
Excellent book. Easy to read. Small enough to pack on a rock finding journey. Valuable information even just as a book to read. A very good reference book.

Ao meu ver, o livro é muito bom para quem pensa em seguir carreira nas áreas geográficas como Geologia, por exemplo. Leitura rápida e consistente e, também, detalhado pra caramba, com muitas ilustrações, etc.

Love Stones
I dunno why youre buying it... What I can say is this... Photos are beautiful, informative, lots of different stones. I love geology, geography and all that stuff.. like getting ideas for writing and drawing. What can I say? Yes, I have drawn rocks in ballpoint pen so I learn the sense of stones. Crazy right?
