Summary:
"Peter Laufmann nimmt den Leser mit in die Tiefe. Wenige Zentimeter von unserer Schuhsohle entfernt beginnt ein Kosmos, der fremdartig ist wie eine verschlossene Kapsel, mit einzigartigem Klima und geheimnisvollen Bewohnern. Neben die Theorie (Urgeschichte, Geophysik, Chemie, Wasserhaushalt etc.) und die Beschreibung des Lebensraums treten Porträts derjenigen, die berufsmäßig Bodenkundige sind, etwa Kleingärtner, Bauern und Bauarbeiter. Laufmann zeigt, wie wir vom Boden abhängen, wie verletzlich er ist und wie sich die Menschheit einen Wettlauf um diese wichtige Ressource liefert, aber auch, was wir zu seiner Erhaltung tun können." --Various websites
"Peter Laufmann takes the reader deep. A few inches below the sole of our shoes is a universe that is as alien as a sealed capsule, with a unique climate and mysterious inhabitants. In addition to the theory (prehistory, geophysics, chemistry, water balance, etc.) and the description of living spaces, there are portraits of those who are professionally familiar with the soil, such as allotment gardeners, farmers and construction workers. Laufmann shows how we depend on the ground, how vulnerable it is and how mankind is racing for this important resource, but also what we can do to preserve it."
