The Humanure Handbook:
A Guide to Composting Human Manure, 3rd Edition

by J. C. Jenkins

This 10th anniversary edition of a classic book is both comprehensive and entertaining. Irreverent and informal, this text documents the folly of polluting clean drinking water with human excrement, and makes the case for simple "sawdust toilets" and other composting systems. It includes step-by-step instructions for building your own composting toilet, a chapter on alternative greywater systems, photos of owner-built sawdust toilets, and an overview of commercial composting toilets and systems. The book is also available free of charge online.
