Starting with the Big Bang creation of the universe, Bonewitz (a
geologist specializing in crystal chemistry with secondary training in
archaeology per his New Age spiritually-oriented Web site) introduces
types of rocks, minerals, gemstones, and fossils to novice collectors.
The well-illustrated guide, published in conjunction with the
Smithsonian Institution, includes a glossary but no further reading or
resources.
