Out of the Earth: Civilization and the Life of the Soil
Daniel Hillel
As the crucible of life, the source and final resting place of everything that grows, soil inspires reverence in the peasant and the scientist. This title presents the history of man's use and misuse of soil and water. It combines a description of the inner processes that form soil with an assertion of its powers and significance.
