Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The author has good communication skills as well as lots of experience in agriculture-- a somewhat rare combination. The book deals with an extremely important topic: the impact of agriculture on planet Earth. (Let's face it. You just can't feed 6 billion people without having a big impact). Besides being important, the book is also well organized, well illustrated and interesting to read.
