Editorial Reviews
Review
"The material presented in Environmental Soil Physics forms a solid soil physics text...This text would [also] make a valuable reference book for anyone working with soils in an environmental context."
-Journal of Environmental Quality
"This book would be an excellent text book to support a specialist soil physics course and, from the non-physicist's point of view, it has much to offer as an illustration of both the breadth of the subject and of what it can offer other disciplines."
-Biological Agriculture and Horticulture -- Review
"This text would make a valuable reference book for anyone working with soils in an environmental context. The undertaking of this book by the author greatly serves a new age of environmental soil scientist. Environmental awareness is at its highest level ever and it is nice to have a leading scientist in his field cater to pertinent issues. This is a fine example of tradition subject matter being modernized to address current and relevant global issues." -- Guy Prettyman, Ohio State University, Wooster, Ohio, U.S.A.
