The Healing Power of Seashells: Gifts of the Sea (ISBN 184409068X)

An informative introduction to the remarkable composition and healing properties of the natural and beautiful seashell:
Beautifully illustrated throughout, The Healing Power Of Seashells by Daya Sarai Chocron is an informative introduction to the remarkable composition and healing properties of the natural and beautiful seashell. Offering readers a complete understanding of the mineral composite of seashells and its significance in healing a variety of human illnesses, The Healing Power Of Seashells draws upon the metaphysical wisdom of shamanic cultures and their use of these sturdy "gifts of the sea" and their exceptional healing abilities. A unique addition to Alternative Medicine and Metaphysical Studies reference collections, The Healing Power Of Seashells is very highly recommended for its unique and concise presentation of Daya Chocron's inspired perspective of the medicinal benefits of seashells.

Not at all what I expected or wanted - VERY disappointed:
I am a jewelry artist. I wanted a book with handy charts and lists telling me what shell has what metaphysical property or power. Instead what I got was an overpriced self-aggrandizing book extolling the virtues of the author. YAWN.
