Add your own review!

Overview

This text examines the ways in which soils are both influenced by , and themselves influence, the environment. It analyzes the propeties, processes and classification of soils, before discussing soils within the context of environmental history, and as components of natural environmental systems. Soil-human interactions are then examined in relation to landuse systems, environmental problems and management, soil survey and land evaluation.
