5.0 out of 5 stars An extraordinary book !, 29 Sep 2009
By Pedro Segurado (Lisbon, Portugal) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An extraordinary book !
A book full of color photographs. The text and photos enormously helpful in the classification of gems. Very useful for the beginner to the professional. Worth several times the value that cost. Highly recommended.
