By: Rolf Nieder,Dinesh K. Benbi,Franz X. Reichl

This volume highlights important links existing between soils and human health which up to now are not fully realized by the public.

The topics covered in this book will be of immense value to a wide range of readers, including soil scientists, medical scientists and practitioners, nursing scientists and staff, toxicologists, ecologists, agronomists, geologists, geochemists, public health professionals, planners and several others.
