Soil Colloids and Their Associations in Aggregates edited by Marcel F. De Boodt, Michael H.B. Hayes, Adrien Herbillon.

S. Henin Versailles, France It was a pleasure for me to take part in the NATO Advanced Study Workshop for studies of 'Soil Colloids and their Associations in Soil Aggregates'. The meeting provided me with a welcome opportunity to renew acquaintances with respected colleagues in the various...
