5.0 out of 5 stars A very helpful book, October 2, 1999

By	Jamie O'Gorman "magic-bead-woman" (Chilmark, MA USA) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent book. I was amazed by the number of different crystals and gemstones discussed (over 200!). I got it from the library and thought it was so great that I bought my own copy! A channeled book with lots of positive and helpful healing information. Using Diane Stein's book as inspiration, I have been carrying crystals everyday and have found them immeasurably reassuring and helpful. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the diverse healing energies of crystals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful, April 7, 2001

I bought this book a year ago. I have several books about healing with crystals and this is the one I refer to most often. Diane Stein includes the healing properties of many uncommon stones which other books leave out. Her descriptions of each stone are short, concise and complete. A wonderful reference.... I use it all the time! I also appreciate the fact that much of the information is channeled.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent concise reference!, April 28, 2002

By	Rhonda L. Thomas "tigerave" (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really love this book for a concise, not-overwhelming book of healing properties of stones. The biggest downfall is that there are no pictures, which is a big disappointment. But if I'm shopping for crystals there is usually a picture, so you can look for the stones whose properties you would like to have, then go out and buy it.

I would love to see an updated version of this with more than 200 stones in it.
