Summary: Fairly Comprehensive "How To" Guidebook
Review: Riveting. I really didn't know how it was going
to end. Was the internal temperature of the heap
high enough to kill the pathogens yet let the
aerobic decomposers work? Was the carbon to
nitrogen ratio correct? Was the worm population
going to survive or was there to be another mass
die off? Wow. A real page turner.
Actually, this does have some useful drawings for
making your own composters including worm based
composters and turning devices. It also has a
decent source list at the back where you can find
the names and addresses of places that will help
you recycle kitchen and garden waste.
I could have done without the political activism
parts of the book. It polarizes the reading audience. It should have focused on helping those
who are interested in starting compost heaps rather than trying to encourage a particular environmental policy.

Summary: Great book
Review: This book has tons of info on composting. I personally was interested in vermicomposting (great for people who live in apartments or rentals) and this book gave me a lot of good information to start my compost bin.
