I was already privvy to much of the logic contained in this book, I purchased it to convert a more straight-edged step-father. The book is a plethora of straight-science rife with anecdotes and great comics. The book contains much medicine and lore while it is written in a political way, only promoting the agricultural, closed-system use of urine. The book will leave you fully believing in the power of Liquid Gold. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book is FUN! *by on Reviewed in the United States December 1, 2007* For anyone interested in this sort of thing "Practicality". This book is fun and interesting. I loved it. Very Easy read. Lots of techniques used around the world on urine separating toilents; along with ideas on how to create you own urinals. I acually made one after reading this book and am using it as liquid fertilizer in my yard. The design is so clean and out of the way that not even my wife was bothered by it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting, Just what the subtitle says *by on Reviewed in the United States May 8, 2009* Though I had heard of this book years ago, I finally got a copy of it just a few days ago.I think I was expecting "more" - but then again - I had just finished reading "The Humanure Handbook" by Joseph Jenkins, and was expecting a similar treatment of the subject.Steinfeld makes all the right points and does so in an interesting manner, but her method is more one of presenting possibilities than one of presenting a plan. It seems as though she is "reporting" - showing us pictures and descriptions of how folks have used urine. She doesn't seem to have a "passion" for the subject - something that people who do things radically different from others generally need to see the project through. Steinfeld is also diametrically opposed to Jenkins on best methods: She suggests separating and using the urine separately while "disposing" of the solid waste material by conventional methods. Jenkins is quite adamant about collecting and using liquids and solids together and recycling them both - a much more ecological and economically-sensible suggestion.(I'd LOVE to see these two authors review each others books!)I would still recommend this book for folks with a couple of *extra* dollars to spend or those just interested in learning how people past and present use urine. For those interested in shouldering the greater responsibility of properly, safely, and beneficially recycling their ALL of their "waste" I would suggest "The Humanure Handbook" instead.In all fairness and to Steinfeld's credit, "The lore and logic of using urine to grow plants" is an accurate description of this book's scope. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2629693-liquid-gold-the-lore-and-logic-of-using-urine-to](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2629693-liquid-gold-the-lore-and-logic-of-using-urine-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
