Beskrivning

An up-to-date, comprehensive text, covering--for the first time in one volume--what soils are, how they form and change under various conditions, and how they are classified. Presentation is modern, systematic, and accessible; it breaks down soil formation processes into fine and gross, describes effects of soil on human activities, and uses the most modern taxonomy throughout.
