What a boring topic, you may think. Who could write a thick book about soil? And who possibly can read it? You may be surprised! If your interest is in the field of landscape architecture, horticulture, forestry, gardening, site engineering e.g. this book will give you a professional knowledge, in a very systematic, approachable way. I will keep Soil Science in my professional library as a reference book.

I am using this book as a textbook for a Soil Nutrition class. The book is surprisingly interesting considering it is a textbook. It is an excellent reference for soil and soil/plant nutrition questions.

This was my college textbook for Soils. This book was extremely interesting. I've used it as a reference for other classes + I'm and arborist. This book is costly, but well worth the $$.

This book makes learning about soil so easy!!!

There are just the right amount of illustrations, graphs, and pictures, and the information is presented in a very easy to understand way without watering down any of the need to know scientific information.

I got an 'A' in the soils class I took, and aside from a great teacher I have this book to thank for it.

An indispensable resource for any serious horticulturalist or gardener who really wants to know what soil is all about.

I have noticed that other reviewers got the wrong edition because the way it is listed here. Check the description before you buy. I got the international Paperback edition (the 5th) and it is exactly the same as the US except the cover (I checked with other student in my class). It is easy to read and the chapters are not too long/tedious. Great for learning about soil nutrients.

I was very satisfied with the purchase and quality of the book. I will most certainly be back in the future.

Great book great price. The transaction was quick and painless. I would recommend this method of purchase to anyone. Thank you

Great price on a critical book for anyone interested in Soil Science. Condition exactly as described.

When I was looking for this book I was under the impression that this was #5. I would not have purchased this book if I had known it was #2. It was not marked correctly on the page thet I bought it from. I am a student with very limited income and was forced to drop the class because I didn't recieve the correct book and ordering another one would have been to late for my studies. I have bookmarked where I bought this book from and will not buy from there again.
