Diamonds/sell/buy or kill for them The business, September 14, 2004
This review is from: The Diamond People (Hardcover)
This is a book that puts a whole new meaning to a brilliant stone. The tumultuous diamond business. The heart of Manhattan from New York to the mines in Africa and everything between. A facinating read..

This review is from: The Diamond People (Hardcover)
I would say that some info. is not fully understood by many of the readers which are not familiar with the lifestyle of the hasidim. A lot emphesis was made on the code " mit mazel und brucha", which I think was not formed as a code, nor is it one for those who currently speak Yiddish; Knowing the language I could say that by all business`s conducted by the hasidim, even on finding a mate you can hear this as well.
