Agricultural soil is presented as a distinct and manageable part of agroecosystems. Chapters 1-6 cover basic studies, with some focusing on the dual nature of roots and soil organic matter as sinks and sources of carbon and nutrients. Other studies focus on the effects of structure-following and structure-forming soil organisms on biochemical and biophysical processes. Chapter 7 takes a more holistic approach, combines basic knowledge together at the agroecosystem level and discusses developing biological management practices that optimize soil properties for sustained agricultural use

Increasingly vital to contemporary design, 'green" or ecological thinking was already anticipated by German modernists in the early twentieth century. At the center of this drive towards an ecological modernism was landscape architect Leberecht Migge 1881-1935). Migge brilliantly synthesized ideas from across fields such as organic gardening, architecture, and biological theory to create pioneering projects throughout central Europe. He applied "biotechnic" principles to integrally link dwelling and garden, recycling household waste to grow foodstuffs through the use of innovative infrastructure and open space planning. In collaboration with prominent modernist architects, including Martin Elsaesser, Ernst May, Bruno Taut, and Martin Wagner, he produced some of the most notable works of the period, the mass housing settlements, or Grobsiedlungen, of Frankfurt Main and Berlin. Migge was also a talented garden and park designer, combining green and architectural elements through his "garden-architectonic." Haney's study fully documents Migge's life and work for the first time, challenging conventional assumptions about modernism and ecological design history. --Book Jacket.
