Description
This book is not, in any case, in total defiance of the Wise Old Man's admonition, for it is not an entirely new book. Rather, it is an
outgrowth of a previous treatise, written a decade ago, entitled "Soil and Water: Physical Principles and Processes." Though that book
was well enough received at the time, the passage of the years has inevitably made it necessary to either revise and update the same
book, or to supplant it with a fresh approach in the form of a new book which might incorporate still-pertient aspects of its predecessor
without necessarily being limited to the older book's format or point of view.
Audience:
Upper-level and undergraduate for students in the soil physics and agricultural and environmental and engineering sciences.
