About the author
Michael Gienger is a German author known for his books on crystals and their traditional and folk uses, several of which have been translated into English and distributed by publishers including Cassell and Earthdancer Books. Crystal Power, Crystal Healing: The Complete Handbook (2020) sets out the basic principles behind crystal work, covering the structure and traditional associations of individual stones in an accessible, reference-style format. The Healing Crystals First Aid Manual lists more than one hundred common ailments alongside the stones traditionally associated with each, specifying preferred forms such as polished pocket stones. Gienger's books are structured as reference works rather than narrative introductions, organized for readers who want to look up a specific stone or condition, and they sit within the broader crystal literature that treats stones as a complement to conventional care.
