This is especiallyimportantforthosecountriesthathavealreadyattainedabroadlyacceptablestandard oflivingbutareambitioustoattainevenhigherlevels.InthiscontextTurkeyoffersasalutary example,sincetherapidgrowthintheTurkisheconomyandindustryoverthepastfewdecades has been achieved, at least in part, at the expense of a national loss of prime soil and related resources through urban expansion and the enhanced space and resource requirements of large-scaleindustry. Moreover, both gigantic and smaller scale projects based on irrigation have been implementedwidelyoverrecentdecadeswithinmanyregionsofTurkey.Manyofthesehave been justified as a means of alleviating rural poverty and enhancing regional economies and incomegeneration.Regrettably,however,theplanningandimplementationoftheseirrigation projectshavebeenbasedprimarilyonthemanifoldrequirementsandavailabilityofareliable water supply but, in general, less attention has been devoted to soil properties data. Such an approacheffectivelyignoresthebulkofthesubstantialbodyofdataandmapsconcerningsoil properties that have been generated previously to assist in crop and sustainable water management.Thus,theultimateaimofthisbookistoprovideanexplanatoryreviewofthesoils ofthis countryand tosummarize theknowledge accumulated overmany decades concerning theirformationandcontemporarymanagement. Furthermore, some of the topics described in this updated version provide important clues and criteria that relate to a future Sustainable Land Management approach partly established onthehistoricalecosystem-basedsoiluse,morepreciselyonthe‘SoilEcosystems’and/orthe ‘Anthroscapes’.Thesoil-nomenclatureteamthatattemptedtoachievethisgoalwaschairedby Prof.Dr.MehmetAliÇulluoftheHarranUniversityandcomprisedtheEditorsandaselection of the article authors, chosen on the basis of their substantial research record on pertinent topics,bothinthefieldandintheGISenvironment.ThisgroupcomprisedProfs.ErhanAkça (Adıyaman University), Salih Aydemir (Harran University), Ertuğrul Aksoy (Uludağ University), Gönül Aydın (Adnan Menderes University), Orhan Dengiz (Ondokuz Mayıs University), Sabit Erşahin (Çankırı Karatekin University), Mahmut Dingil (Çukurova University), Özden Görücü (Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University), Yusuf Kurucu (Ege University), Hasan Özcan (Onsekiz Mart University), and Mustafa Sarı (Akdeniz University) in alphabetical order.
