‎BE, Tectum, 2008 Hardback with slip case, 313 x 313mm., 432pp. ISBN 9789076886510.‎

‎This book takes you on a unique visual journey, exploring the extraordinary world of diamonds in many ways, a world apart as this substance has made and destroyed both countries and individuals. From the heart of a star to the human heart, diamonds are entwined with the stuff of life. No other natural substance is so lovely and so evocative of every human passion, good or bad, all the while still managing to far outlast all these things. The diamond cycle is a long journey stretching over aeons, buried deep in the earth. This beauty is difficult to win back, mines are found in some of the wildest and most remote places of the earth, from the chill of the Arctic Circle, tropical jungles or semi deserts, to the storm-racked coasts of Africa. Once won, the hardest substance on earth is cut and transformed with painstaking precision, in diamond centres across the globe. Diamonds is a record of that world. New book. ‎
