Science DiscussionsAn excerpt from the book appears on the Slate website called “Why I Wrote a Book About Human Waste.” The Slate excerpts continue with “From Toilet to Tap,” “Latrine Rights In India,” and “In One End and Out the Burner.” Rose George is a London, England-based freelance writer and journalist who regularly contributes to The Guardian, The Independent, and the Financial Times. (No doubt, these are monetary sources that allow her "to make ends meet.") According to her website, “She received her congratulatory first-class honours BA in modern languages from the University of Oxford in 1992, and her MA in international politics in 1994 from the University of Pennsylvania. She speaks fluent French and Italian, some Spanish and German, and bad Bulgarian and Arabic, but remains always a Yorkshirewoman.” You may not like talking about poo and pee in public, but the book is an entertaining reading in the privacy of your own privy. |
