Berlin Literary Review (excerpt):

The photos are a feast for the eyes. After studying the book, one involuntarily wonders how one has managed so far without the many tips and without the soil invigorating effect of EM preparations.

Excerpt from the foreword by Prof. Dr. Manfred Hoffmann:

A preoccupation with the world of microorganisms and their helpful effects on your everyday life will create new aha experiences and make many tasks easier for you. Enjoy the realization that what is currently scientifically explainable is only a small part of our experienceable world. Greater is the individual perception of being allowed to live in the vast sea of unexplored existence. And so I wish that you can make a series of new individual perceptions through the book, which are just as real as if they had already been researched and proved in detail.

I wish you the courage to experiment on your own and the ability to marvel again at how everything great can sometimes be so simple! May the book also give you much joy in dealing with your soil, your animals, your health and your fellow human beings.

Reviews:

Anyone who deals with EM cannot get past Anne Lorch. And that is good! A really successful book in all facets. The first edition has already impressed me, now I am very satisfied. A lot of basic and background information about EM and the sensible use with EM. Clearly described and presented, very user-friendly and understandable put into book form. If you are new to the subject or are already a professional.... Anne Lorch knows how to inspire.

Such a successful book is a joy and my garden has become a real splendor. Thank you Anne Lorch.

From the 1st to the last page, the book was written very clearly and understandably. No other EM book could convince me like this. Congratulations! 

M. G.

A good book for someone who is wondering if everything really has to stay so bad or if you can't start even in small things to make it better. Am since about 1 year enthusiastic EM user, can only recommend reading, better than the Internet badmouthing on the subject of professional bloggers.

Due to the many varied means of design in this book, one does not tire while reading. It is almost unbelievable how diverse the application of EM is in the household, personal care, garden, agriculture or even in animal husbandry. I have already tried many things and can only confirm the effectiveness of EM.

Anne Lorch's EM book is the best and most comprehensive EM book in the expanded and updated 2013 edition. It really covers everything from soil biology to health, water and agriculture, with precise, practical applications. An indispensable standard work for advanced EM use. Terra Preta is also a chapter of this expanded edition

The book is wonderfully done!!!!!!!!!!

Very loving, powerful, expressive and for a great cause!!!!

B. M.

Really the hammer! Really super and comprehensive. The book is almost self-explanatory, just with the many really strong images. This book could be given to an analaphabeten to look at and he would understand at the end "EM" in the basics! I had to really put the book on the page so I could go to bed. It is written in such a captivating way that even as a "non-layman" you keep discovering EM anew.

The longer I read the book, the more gripping it became. It's crazy what's packed into it. I especially like that the individual chapters are self-contained and can be read that way. It has something for everyone. A real work of snacking.

U. R.

The plate from dinner remains on the kitchen table, the heating has long since been lowered, I freeze silently - unable to fetch a blanket. The kitchen chair is uncomfortable and outside the snowstorm rattles the window shutter. The new EM book by Anne Lorch is in front of me and it won't let me go. I flip back and forth, oh just these pictures and just very quickly this colorful statement. I almost can't stop reading.

M. M.

I have a great need to say how impressed I am with the book and the effort. I look forward to reading it !!!!!! But I would like to thank you already for the great gift to the microorganisms.

E. G.

So this book is a must-have for all who deal with EM. I would say it is one of the best books on this sometimes complex subject. At the beginning it describes very precisely why EM is useful and then (about 2/3 of the book) everything is described for practice. The mixing ratios are described very precisely and all areas of application for EM are shown. From household to garden to pond.

B.

This is certainly the most comprehensive book on the subject of EM. Well described, richly illustrated. Many application examples with the appropriate mixing ratios. Also good to read if you are only interested in certain topics.

L.

I am one of the "newcomers" to EM and I am totally enthusiastic about this book. First, it describes exactly the why and why of EM and secondly, the largest and for me the most important part of the book is about the application in practice. The mixing ratios and the different areas of application are described in detail, so that it is easy to understand and follow even for a "newbie".

I definitely did not regret buying this book.

L. N.

In this book, especially beginners get a comprehensive overview of the application of the Effective Microoarganisms. It provides comprehensive information, but in a language that everyone can understand. In my opinion, it is a very good book to get started in the subject and I would recommend it without any reservation.

A.R.

An excellent book, clear, very well designed and organized and also practical. This book provides well-founded and easy to understand basics and problems in the areas such as horticulture, agriculture, environment, water biology, nutrition, and more. The importance and application of EM in various fields is well presented. It is suitable in EM practice as a handbook and reference book.

H.-P. T.

This book is an instruction manual for the application of Effective Microorganisms for all areas in daily use. It gives sound guidance for both animal production, crop production, manure management and many more. It can be used both as an introduction and as a reference for specific applications. It can be used by the layman as an introduction as well as by the professional as a special reference book.
