Buy Rocks & Minerals The Definitive Visual Guide by Ronald Bonewitz - Hardcover by Bonewitz, Ronald online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Ottimo libro !!! Perfettamente comprensibile anche se in inglese!!! Anche per chi mastica l'inglese proprio bene. Lo consiglio assolutamente,è ricco e completo di foto! Review: Yes it's true, the print is very small, just about manageable. But to use larger type would double the size of the book which is already a good size. The photos are excellent and clear, and the amount of learning involved in writing this book is simply phenomenal! Every imaginable rock is included and several varieties of them. And while most geology books seem to assume the reader has a degree in the subject so they understand all the technical terms, this book has a GLOSSARY! Worth buying for that alone. Loads of info about each rock. For example i always wondered why many flint nodules have a white crust - the book tells me it's from weathering. So your questions are probably answered too. It's not bedtime reading as it would never send you to sleep, it's a very comprehensive reference book. Get one and you'll see i'm not exaggerating.
