  Based on a conference organised by the Research Advisory Services Directorate of Scottish Natural Heritage, this book explores the links between soils, the natural heritage and the long-term well-being of the environment. Written by a team of experts, the major land use is explored from the perspective of the sustainable use of the land resources of Scotland. Soil has too often been neglected by nature conservationists, but this book demonstrates how important it is in considering the management of sites, the protection of biodiversity, and the enjoyment of the natural environment.
