		<description><![CDATA[Author David Montgomery accomplishes quite a feat with his 2007 work, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations. He takes a potentially mundane topic, dirt, and transforms it into an entertainingly educational trip through history. As the name implies, societies throughout history rely on little more than their land&#8217;s ability to produce food. In fact, as the author [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a perceived battle between ranchers and environmentalists. Ranchers intend to raise animals without consideration for the land, while environmentalists fight tooth and nail against the exploitation of nature.
