Handy crystal pocket guide
Really useful little pocket book, which gives a brief but thorough description of the most commonly seen crystals. There is some brief geological information and it describes the spiritual, soul, mental and bodily aspects of each one. Its very handy to have when out "crystal" shopping. I think you would need a more comprehensive text to accompany this though - but as a beginner I've found it very useful.

Great little book!
This is a great little book, with pictures of all crystals mentioned, there are seperate discriptions of the crystals propertys for mind, body, spirit and other. It has both the correct and common names for each crystal with a handy quick list in the back. It also has litle boxes by each crystal for you to tick off to keep track of which crystals you have collected. Its big enough to give lots of details for everyday use but small enough to fit in you handbag for a trip to the shops when crystal hunting. Its only down-fall is that it does not have some quite common crystals in it, ive found so far that silver aventuirne, red gold stone and blue gold stone are not in the book.

Healing Crystals: A-Z to 430 Gemstones
What a great book. Ideal for beginners and just the right amount of info without too much waffle. I bought 2 of these wonderful books and gave one to a friend who is just setting out on her crystal healing. She thought it was very useful.
