Any reference by Dr. Epstein is a valuable tool for the composting professional ! It also includes perhaps the most comprehensive list of reference materials, which should be very helpful if the reader desires more information on a particular topic. --John T. Bouey, P.E., President, Managed Organic Recycling, Inc., Oakland, California
