متن يادداشت
"Teaming with Microbes enlightens readers in two important ways. First, it describes the activities of the organisms that make up the soil food web, from the simplest of single-cell organisms to more familiar multicellular animals such as insects, worms, and mammals. Knowing how each of these groups contributes to the soil drives home the complexity and fragility of their interactions, and promotes respect for their integrity. Second, the book explains how to foster and cultivate the life of the soil through the use of compost, mulches, and compost teas." "By eschewing jargon and overly technical language, the authors make the benefits of cultivating the soil food web available to a wide audience, from devotees of organic gardening techniques to weekend gardeners who simply want to grow healthy, vigorous plants without resorting to chemicals."--Jacket
