Review: If you love pearls, marine biology - I have a copy of this book, completely indispensable. As a gemologist and malacologist, this book provides critical scientific data concerning all facets of the "pearl oyster" and the cultured pearl industry. Primarily, the book focuses on the family Pterridae, and the marine oysters that produce such spectacular natural gems...ie the south sea pearl oyster, the black lipped pearl oyster, and the akoya pearl oyster. The book delves into the natural history of the pearl oyster and how the world needs to focus on them, by preserving them as a resource, that can become compromised due to neglect and wanton abuse by consumers and ecological rapists. If you love pearls, marine biology, or have a yen to learn more about these mystical gems from the deep blue sea, get it and start the party, it continues to educate me, as well as gives me a barrels worth of biological information, Enjoy!
Review: straordinario lavoro di ricerca. Tutto quanto l'uomo sa sulle perle, scritto in modo chiaro, preciso, puntuale. Un capolavoro! i miei complimenti agli autori.
