Summary, Etc.The new edition of this highly sucessful book has been completely rewritten to make soil science more relevant to the ecological environment, the metric system, land use, irrigation, reclamation of saline and sodic soils, and to world population and food production. The chapters have been expanded and broadened to encompass new discoveries and alternatives concerning soils and land use. The book contains an innovative system of "notes" throughout that explain concepts in greater scientific depth. Chapter summaries and review questions reinforce your rapid grasp of the material. This up-to-date introduction covers all fundamentals of soils and their management practices relating to plant nutrition. New topics include organic soils, sand, acid sulfate clays, and irrigation water quality standards. Over two hundred and thirty drawings and photographs illustrate the discussions and more than 500 documents are cited as footnotes. This highly successful book is self-explanatory, easy-to-read, and contains an abundance of world-wide examples of problems and solutions in the use of soils
