Overview

You Don't Know Sh*t, Until You Read This Book, is a uniquely informative tastefully entertaining, and well-illustrated volume that is full of it! The 'it' being a comprehensive and knowledgeable overview of all topics related to the remains of the digestive process. Whether you call it poop, feces, excrement, manure, dung, or by one of the more than one hundred euphemisms, shit happens, and it happens a lot! Tens of billions of pounds and kilograms of it are deposited every day by a wild diversity of animal and microbial life. Humans alone contribute over three billion pounds a day, and only a small percentage of that is treated by a sewage system. Whether you disdain or appreciate it, it is part of the human (and animal) experience. The purpose of this volume is to share rarely discussed, yet very important, knowledge about poop. The information ranges from the potentially life-saving to the sidesplitting descriptions of the eccentricities and peculiarities of human behavior. The wealth of information and trivia can sustain a long social conversation, or cut it short abruptly!
