Customer Reviews

Old book. Facinatingly relevant.5
The first chapters are full of information in simple English about the history of sewage, including pictures.
(The dead horse and kids playing in an open sewer is one picture that remains with me since I purchased the book 2nd hand at 11th grade 20 years ago!).

The book shows where the current system is leading us, and clearly states what is needed. It checks what type of people use composting toilets, where they hoped to apply them (20 years ago and same today) and what the problems are. The rest of the book has detailed plans, bibliography and pictures of alternatives that were available then, including experience. Although not always very clear, it's fun reading.
And still an excelent source.
