Praise for Edward Jay Epstein:

"Brilliant Expose of the International diamond monopoly"
--Telegraph (London)

"Full of readable if somewhat garish descriptions of diamond mines, diamond traders, and the activities of governments. If Ian Fleming were alive, he would have found much rewarding material here."
-Woodrow Wyatt, Sunday Times
