Soil: The Incredible Story of What Keeps the Earth, and Us, Healthy A fascinating tale of the unsung hero of our planet, soil is the story of our most maligned resource as a swashbuckling hero. From ancient hunger to modern sicknesses, and from bombs to climate collapse, soil has played a pivotal role in shaping our world. This book reveals the intricate workings of soil, how it's made, how it's lost, and how it can be repaired. Understanding how soil works is crucial for ensuring our food is nourishing and our planet's long-term health. Commentator and farmer Matthew Evans shows us that what we do in our backyards, on our farms, and what we put on our dinner tables really matters, and can be a source of hope. By exploring the importance of soil, we can start to treat the ground beneath our feet with the respect it deserves. By learning about soil, we can take the first steps towards a healthier planet. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the vital role soil plays in our survival.
