This book is a welcome clarification of the hard science behind organic methods of gardening.

 Anyone who reads Teaming with Microbes will understand why soil is best understood from a biological rather than a chemical perspective: It's alive! But, because biology is inherently more compex than chemistry, it is often hard to grasp its everyday implications. Teaming's authors have cracked that nut with simple language and entertaining examples.

"Teaming with microbes" is extremely important for our times. It can lead the way to a much broader movement to sustainable gardening practices by winning over those who have been turned off by earlier organic 'mumbo-jumbo.' Yes, it is easy to understand, but it will not turn off those readers who bring a sophisticated scientific skepticism to their reading. It will inspire them."  Review by John Gardner, "Urban Worms Organics"
