Is it true that you can put stone flour in sweets? How can we use rocks to calculate how many billions of years ago the Earth was formed? Is there a connection between stones and animals and what is it? You'll find the answers to these and many other questions in "Entertaining Mineralogy". Based on his own rich experience of expeditions and studying minerals, Alexander Fersman has prepared a fascinating encyclopedia on the world of stones: the book tells you where and how they are mined and used, what minerals are found in nature and what their properties are, and even how to start collecting your own collection. "Fun mineralogy" is complemented by illustrations and photographs from museums and observatories and will appeal to anyone interested in gemstones and minerals.
