The Chemistry of Soils

This revised edition is especially welcome. The work maintains the organization of previous editions, but the material has been significantly revised, including the reading lists and the presented problems.[...] The 120 problems provided are often challenging, but they represent an essential component of the presentation. This excellent treatment is highly recommended, although the discussion will be most useful to those who have had a solid introduction to chemical principles. * H. E. Pence, CHOICE * This book by Garrison Sposito reflects the latest insights in the field and is a welcome update for those who want to have a fundamental insight into the processes in soils, insight which is needed to safeguard the crucial role of soils for life on earth. [...] The book is certainly also of interest for researchers already familiar with soil chemistry, as it may provide a new and interesting view of the subject. * Bert-Jan Groenenberg, Acta Cryst * This revised edition is especially welcome.
