Very impressive!
I have many other books on crystals, including Judy Hall's Crystal Bible, and I must say I just fell in love when I saw this book. Right off the bat it was able to help me identify crystals I had purchased that were mislabeled by the shop. It had photo examples of almost every crystal in the book and some having multiple examples. The photos are beautiful and really helpful. What made me bring it home was I found crystals that can help children with ADHD, which my oldest son has. This is the first book I have found so far that covers it.
My only real complaint, like the other reviewer, is that the crystals are listed by colors. In actuality, it is probably a good thing as most other books are by name. You may not know the name of a particular crystal, but know its color. So you can search in that color section to hopefully find a photo resembling the crystal you have.
With each crystal it gives you the crystal system, chemistry, hardness, source (or origin), chakra, number, zodiac sign, planet, what it is beneficial for, and additional information of what the crystal is useful for. This is more for knowing the stones. If you are looking for a book where you can look up the crystal that meets your needs as far as ailments or any healing, I'd recommend Judy Hall's Crystal Prescriptions.
I would definitely recommend having this in your library for anyone interested in crystals and crystal healing.
Wonderful continuation and expanding of Crystal Bible
Judy Hall (author of Crystal Bible, a condensed hand held 7"x6"x1" plethora of stone knowledge and medical application of stones) continues and expands her previous work in a HUGE legal sized version of acension stones divided by chraka color. If you loved Crystal Bible you will also love Encyclopedia of Crystals a companion and expanded version that includes beautiful photographs of newly discovered stones. A Wonderful
addition to any stone library. Thank you Judy Hall!
Questionable Pictures Sometimes
This is overall a very good crystal and gemstone book. Much of the information meshes well with Melody's books and I like that they identify which chakras each stone works well with. It's easy to navigate and designed well. However, some of the images that they chose to represent the stones are really not good, in fact, some of them barely look like any specimen I've ever seen of the stone and are not good for identification at all.
