The Diamond Handbook IS the exception. This time you CAN judge a book by the cover!! The cover is awesome - there's a picture of a huge, beautiful diamond on the front and a subtitle promise on how to avoid ripoffs. I grabbed this one and I'm glad I did. There is way more information in it than I ever dreamed there could be about diamonds; it's very helpful and incredibly interesting. I found it hard to put down as it's much more than a gem "tech manual". Most every topic covered has a story or example to prove its case and it's easy and fun to read. The pictures clearly show examples being described. I will most definitely make the book visible when I buy my next diamond. Any jeweler, who is familiar with this book or this author, will be on his best behavior when seeing the book in my hands. He will know that I've come armed with solid information and that I know what I want and I know what I'm looking for and that I will understand his terminology. It should be fun!! My heartfelt thanks to the author who is so willing to clue us in on the mysteries of the diamond game.
