"Gold does a splendid job of transporting readers from one defining
moment in the history of gold to the next."--Mining.com
"From deep within the gold mines of South Africa and China to
corporate boardrooms, from miners and thieves to body guards and
gold traders, Hart (Diamond, 2001) offers a fascinating look at the
geology, geopolitics, and economics of gold."--Booklist
"In his absorbing book Gold, Matthew Hart looks at the precious
metal both as a mineral ... and as an idea that has evolved in
dizzyingly strange ways through the millenniums."--Columbus
