Is the biochar book worth reading?

It's interesting, but a bit thin. The work is still being done that will either prove or disprove the efficacy.

The bit about the Pizarro band encountering waaay more people than previously thought lived on the Amazon is really interesting. Bates did the translation of the account himself, so I'm not sure if that is available elsewhere.

I'd get a used copy. I'd send you mine, but I still occasionally find myself using it as a reference.
