In introduction to scientific study of the soil
- 5th ed.
- London : Edward Arnold, 1973
In this new edition the aim of the original author has ben preserved, and the book is still "essentially a communication from a teacher to students". The book describes in elementary terms, the factors which have an important bearing on soil fertility. It discusses the various components of soil which contribute to its nature and decribes ways in which soils develop and deteriorate.
