The Big Necessity: Adventures in the World of Human Waste |
All living creatures must do this every day, but only one-quarter of humanity can go to a toilet, wipe, flush, wash their hands, and get on with life. The other three-quarters of the globe . . . well, anywhere will do, with effort and time, disease and problems rife. Interesting places and people are described. Don't fear, it isn't all statistics! But if how the world works interests you, then read this book.
