Textbook in PDF format Micromorphology, the microscopic investigation of undisturbed earth materials, is by definition based on the ability to identify components and to recognize shapes, arrangements, and patterns in thin sections. Microscopic observation is complicated by the fact that a two-dimensional image is used to observe a three-dimensional reality. A book with reference images can, therefore, be of invaluable importance for micromorphologists. In the past, handbooks on micromorphology were sparsely illustrated with black and white photographs. It is only since the beginning of this century that the use of colour plates became economically feasible. Although some initiatives were taken to make more reference images available for students and researchers, they only reached a limited audience. In life sciences, such as medicine, biology, botany, and wood anatomy, atlases of microscopic images have existed since the early twentieth century, the earliest of which often included coloured drawings. Similarly for mineralogy and petrography, atlases of rocks and mineral images under the microscope were published in the second half of last century and were used with enthusiasm by generations of students. Such an atlas is missing for soil micromorphology. The initiative taken by Eric Verrecchia and Luca Trombino is, therefore, more than welcome. This atlas has been prepared not only for beginner soil micromorphologists but also for more experienced researchers. Images are complemented by informative text explaining concepts and terms, and by references to the literature, and where necessary, a historic insight into the evolution of the terminology. A list of translations of the terms into French, Italian, and German at the end of the book will contribute to widen its use internationally Observation of Soils: From the Field to the Microscope The Organization of Soil Fragments Basic Components Pedogenic Features Pedofeatures Associated to Soil Processes The Future of Soil Micromorphology
