Crystals

"Crystals" by A. E. H. (Alfred Edwin Howard) Tutton is a book that seeks to introduce the world of crystal science to everyone by showing how beautiful crystals are and how they act under polarized light. The book talks about how crystals grow and the ideas behind crystal science, using simple language. It presents the idea that crystals are alive, growing and healing like living things, and can even regrow from broken pieces under the right conditions, like quartz crystals recovering over time. The beginning of the book also prepares the reader to learn about the history of crystal science and the important people who helped us understand how crystals are made and put together.
