A Soil Owner's Manual: How to Restore and Maintain Soil Health by Jon Stika (@humusphysicus on Twitter)

A book that is short but jam-packed with the basics of soil function and structure as well as a plan to ameliorate degraded and destroyed soils. A must-have in your library.

Quotes from the book:

"The problem lies in that most people do not know what a healthy soil looks or acts like, nor what makes it healthy or unhealthy."

"The five main functions of soil are: maintaining biodiversity and productivity, partitioning water and solute flow, filtering and buffering, nutrient cycling, and structural support."

"There are three main classes of soil properties; physical, chemical, and biological."
