About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“Martin and Sauerborn … use a broad approach to reach a wide spectrum of readers. The book has been translated very well from the original German. The examples and concepts of agroecology presented are universal. … This has the potential to be the book that introduces new student cohorts in both biology and agriculture to the other’s point of view and to begin a new, productive conversation to the benefit of both. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (M. J. Stone, Choice, Vol. 51 (4), December, 2013)Authors and Affiliations
