The most comprehensive, uptodate, and thoroughly researched book on the topic of composting human manure available anywhere.

Written by a humanure composter with over twenty years experience, this classic work now includes illustrated, stepbystep instructions on how to build a '$25 composting toilet.' Also new to the second edition is a chapter on alternative graywater systems; color photos of humanure compost gardens; a review of U.S. state regulations pertaining to compost toilets, graywater systems, and constructed wetlands; and a list of compost toilets sources worldwide.
