3.0 out of 5 stars Compost engineering, 6 April 2009
By Declan Hyland "D.H" (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The speed and delivery i recieved from amazon was excellent. This book gives a very good practical and theorecical approach to composting. I was surprised at the quantity of research that had been completed in this field up to and well over 16 years ago. The book was published in 1993 and i would expect that there has been huge advances made in the technologies used for composting since. Overall it is a very good book and a must have if you are working in the field.
