Descrizione dell’editore

This important but neglected book shows the reader how farming practices, and the care - or lack of care - with which the soil is treated have brought about both the rise and fall of civilizations, from the ancient Romans, to the Chinese, and the Muslim world.

Soil is at the heart of civilization. This is a fully re-edited version of this classic and important text.
