In this publication, which is part of the "Le Perline del Museo" series of the Natural History Museum of the University of Florence, the concept of "gold" is explored from several points of view. The book is divided into 11 chapters dealing with gold from various points of view: its chemical-physical properties, how and where it can be found in nature, the mineralogy of gold, the processes to extract it, what can be done with gold and gold over the centuries, up to a brief description of the California "gold rush" of the late nineteenth century. The publication is enriched with beautiful images of gold in all its forms. For the realisation of the publication, the author collaborated with the American Museum of Natural History (New York, USA), the Museum of the City of San Francisco (San Francisco, USA) and the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, USA). 606 $aMineralogy & gems$2bicssc 606 $aRocks, minerals & fossils$2bicssc 610 $aChimica 610 $aStoria 610 $aScienze naturali 610 $aMuseo di storia naturale 610 $aFirenze 615 7$aMineralogy & gems 615 7$aRocks, minerals & fossils 700 $aBINDI$b LUCA$4auth$0890814 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910571771603321 996 $aOro$92950494 997 $aUNINA
