Very informative, but I don't know if I'd recommend it to someone who doesn't spend most of their time in the dirt...

An excellent reference book for soil science. It does feel a bit dated and it isn't terribly interesting. Also, the black and white pictures are kind of a drag, especially because soils have many different colors and those colors help with classification. However, the diagrams have some color -- mostly black, white, blue, and gray, I think (may depend on the version). Certainly not a fun read -- after all, it is a textbook. I'm not sure that I would buy it to keep it. Definitely more of a rental, online or otherwise.

What a great book ! It really helps us whom studied in soil science and environmental science to get more knowledge and inspiration -especially Indonesia's student. To be honest in my country, it's really hard to find great book about soil science, peoples also uninterested about this what-so-called avatar science :D But I got a lot of good citation and marked few important point of my study from this book, inspiring ! Thanks for helping me during the hard moment of "skripsi". This book is truly my savior ! This book really recommended ! I hope someone will be kind to make the translation of this book to Bahasa Indonesia.

10/9 would recommend for a comprehensive and detailed look at soil and pedology. The examples and case studies are plenty, but always too America-centric: that is my sole complaint.

marking this as read for emotional labor of having to read (realistically skim) every single chapter of this book for a class. super informative to the point of complexity
