"Some general "far-out-ish" ideas on health of soil being critical to planetary health. As a general concept, good. There is more than NPK to growing plants- however, writing is a little wide eyed and glassy on some things, and the current chapter is declaring that we were actually undergoing global cooling (circa 1998) which might be a little embarrassing to the authors today."
"Okay. We have already established that Peter Tompkins is a kook. Like all great kooks and raving nutters, however, he makes some valid points. I think bio-dynamic gardening is great, and that is a major topic of this book. Also, no one else, at the time this was written, was raising the alarm about the erosion of topsoil and the horrible chemicals being used to sustain plant growth. History has vindicated Tompkins on his concern for the soil, and I highly applaud his efforts."
"I read this one as a sequel to Secret Life of Plants. It is somewhat more critical but may be more difficult to read in that it is dense and deals more directly with biodynamic gardening, heavily. But the main point, is that we are rapidly losing our topsoil, and we should be actively doing something about it if we want to sustain ourselves."
