Includes 15 illustrations (including plan and diagrams). Exact facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. During his years as a scientist working for the British government in India, Sir Albert Howard conceived of and refined the principles of organic agriculture. Howard's \u003cem\u003eThe Soil and Health\u003c\/em\u003e became a seminal and inspirational text in the organic movement soon after its publication in 1947. \u003cem\u003eThe Soil and Health\u003c\/em\u003e argues that industrial agriculture, emergent in Howard's era and dominant today, disrupts the delicate balance of nature and irrevocably robs the soil of its fertility. Howard's classic treatise links the burgeoning health crises facing crops, livestock, and humanity to this radical degradation of the Earth's soil. His message―that we must respect and restore the health of the soil for the benefit of future generations―still resonates among those who are concerned about the effects of chemically enhanced agriculture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Albert Howard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684227356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684227358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Martino Fine Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.76d","brand":"Albert Howard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079883583743,"sku":"9781684227358","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bbb8c779-3be1-4d0b-b6c7-72c8969c229a.jpg?v=1685483703","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-soil-and-health-albert-howard-9781684227358","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
