The other dark matter - the science and business of turning waste into wealth and health
Ambitious and rooted in scientific scholarship, this book shows how human excrement can be a life-saving, money-making resource - if we make better use of it. When re-cycled correctly, this cheap, renewable and widely available resource can be converted into a sustainable energy source, act as an organic fertilizer, provide effective medicinal therapy for antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection, and much more.
