Yes, Constance, thank you.  That publication is Intensive Agriculture 
and Environmental Quality: Examining the Newest Agricultural Myth, by 
Tracy Irwin Hewitt and Katherine R. Smith, published in the September, 
1995 issue of the Report from the Henry A. Wallace Institute for 
Alternative Agriculture.  Additional copies are available for $4.00:

An excellent critical review of Avery's book was published in the Land 
Stewardship Letter, May/June 1995, by Brian DeVore.  Contact the Land 
Stewardship Project, 2200 4th St, White Bear Lake, MN, USA  55110.

I just came in on this, but i have heard very uncomfortable remarks
about Avery from colleagues that saw him speak recently.  The Henry
Wallace Institute did an excellent "rebuttal" of his premises on
conventional agriculture in a an issue of their newsletter last year.
