The long-awaited second edition of this classic textbook is brought completely up to date. New chapters focus on organic carbon, soil biology, soils related to livestock production and forestry, and agroforestry. This will again be the go-to textbook for courses on tropical soils, and a reference for scientists and development professionals.

Pedro A. Sanchez¿s name is almost synonymous with the topic of tropical soil science. His work has influenced research in agronomy, ecology, and changed the way technology and policy are used to increase food production in environmentally sustainable ways. He is Pre-eminent Research Professor of Tropical Soil Science at the University of Florida. Sanchez spent fifty years alternating between US universities and research centers of the Consultative Group for International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). He is the first soil scientist to receive both the World Food Prize and a MacArthur Fellowship, and is a member of the US National Academy of Sciences.
