I bought this book thinking my 7 year old daughter would love it, which she did. However , I never dreamed her twin brother would want to read. He does NOT like to read. Well he has read 2 times! Even my 10 year old enjoyed it. Thank you so much. We are now on a mission to find more books from the same author. My son is looking forward them.

I love this beautiful book with its colorful, glossy photos of crystals and gemstones. Very interesting and informative, it explores various crystal healing "layouts" and methods. I haven't tried them yet, but I probably will! Well worth the price.

This book is a true magnum opus as it tries to cover not only interfaces but also the effects of interfaces on the behavior of materials; for example, creep, deformation, etc.

First thing in order to get good profit of this book is to be aware of the date of its first publication (around 60's). Since then much have been discussed about both Stylistics and Linguistics but by that time the authors pointed out a few good important elements do discuss the uses of language with a scientific approach. If you don't have a background on the Stylistics studies, remember that this book brings a very specific view of what stylistics is and which aspects stylistics should focus on.

According to the authors Stylistics is the branch of linguistics that studies aspects of language variations. Considering that for each social situation one uses a different kind of language skills, Stylistics should study and analyse these variations according to social backgrounds and cultural contexts. Stylistics would focus on some of the same language aspects of nowadays Social Linguistics but looking for what Charles Bally called the expressive face of language.

The book is full of good analysis of uses of English and can be very interesting for the ones who desire to discover this language. Crystal and Davy don't offer any example of literary text as they believe that literature deserves a more carefull aprroach. Before the task of analysing this kind of text, Stylistics would have to grow on tradition as a Discipline so that people would be prepared to face the challenge of describing literary style. Regarding on this matter and considering the importance of training stylists, they offer a method to text analysis.

First, be aware that the exciting Tintin adventure that begins in "Las Siete Bolas de Cristal" ("The Seven Crystal Balls") is concluded in "El Templo del Sol" ("Prisoners of the Sun"). As our story begins, Tintin is on the train reading in the newspaper how the Sanders-Hardiman Ethnographic Expedition has returned a trip to Peru and Bolivia. The gentleman reading over Tintin's shoulder predicts trouble, drawing a parallel between what happened with the curse of King Tut-Ankh-Amen's tomb and these explorers violating the Inca's burial chambers. "What'd we say if the Egyptians or the Peruvians came over here and started digging up our kings?," asks the gentleman; "What'd we say then, eh?" The comment is important, not only because tragedy does strike the seven members of the expedition as they fall prey to the bolas de cristal of the book's title, but because one of the themes that Hergé develops in this particular epic is the respect Europeans should have for other cultures and ways of life. This point has been implicit in many of Tintin's adventures, but it is a dominant element this time around.

Assisted by his good friend Captain Haddock, Tintin becomes embroiled in the mystery, which takes a more personal turn when Professor Tornasol is kidnapped. One interesting twist in this story is that our little furry friend Milu actually ends up causing more trouble than Hernandez & Fernandez. There is a seriousness to what happens in "Las Siete Bolas de Cristal" and "El Templo del Sol" that reflects a significant turning point in Hergé's work, beginning the period of his greatest tales, which includes this story along with the two-part trip to the Moon and "Tintin en el Tibet." The ability of Hergé to grow as a storyteller over the course of his distinguished career is impressive and these stories deserve the accolades they have received and the affection with which they have been embraced by generations of readers all around the world.
