-Truly a vast oak tree has grown from a very small acorn. And Shit Matters tells the story extremely well.---Peregrin Swann, WHO Senior Advisor

Truly a vast oak tree has grown from a very small acorn. And Shit Matters tells the story extremely well.

A 'must read' for anyone who believes that a world in which over one billion people defecate in the open is a world not fit to live in. --Sanjay Wijesekera, Team Leader, Water and Sanitation Shit Matters: The Potential of Community-Led Total Sanitation covers the CLTS sanitation program which originated in rural Bangladesh in 2000 and which offers a focus on change through participatory techniques. It uses the Bangladesh research and experiences throughout Asia and Africa to cover changes in sanitation policy and practice, provides articles by leading scholars and practitioners, and assesses lessons in sanitation policy and field applications. College-level collections strong in sociology, sanitation, and health will all find this a fine collection documenting successes and issues involving poverty and sustainability. -- (01/01/2012) Truly a vast oak tree has grown from a very small acorn.
