- If you are new to bidets, this book will save you money, and help you find your ideal bidet. - If you have a bidet you might be surprised by some of the benefits of the bidet. - If you are industry, this is your trusted reference.This book is the best way to buy a bidet if you know nothing about bidets. This book is for anyone who wants to know the who, what, where, when and why of bidets. The first edition of The Bidet has been affectionately known for years as "the bidet bible" for its complete and comprehensive coverage of everything bidet. I have finally revised and updated everything to make it "the bidet bible". This book is the industry reference with all the latest information. This is the best way to buy a bidet if you know nothing about bidets. Fifteen years ago the first edition of this book became known in the industry as "the bidet bible" for the completeness of its information. It combined all known peer-review research with personal, scatological and humorous anecdotes about the bidet, and how we relate to it. This book embraced the full range of bidet experience. Whenever possible I used the words of the researchers and users themselves. All of that is retained and expanded in this new edition.This second edition is twice the size, with almost 100 pictures and illustrations, and explains and describes the benefits of the many types of bidet. An easy read that serves the needs of a beginner and expert alike. Everything you want or need to know about the bidet is in this book: how to identify, choose, set-up and properly use the various bidets. It clearly describes the many health benefits of using a bidet. Many anecdotes reveal how pleasurable and useful bidets can be. There are huge ecological savings from using a bidet. There is a separate section that critiques our use of toilet paper and the ecological disaster it has become. It further describes the many toxic chemicals that may be lurking in your roll of TP (which you can avoid with a bidet). What worked for a much smaller population 200 years ago is seriously broken today. The ecological damage from TP production is terrifying. World production of TP is well over 36 billion rolls a year! That is unsustainable! Our insatiable need for the softest TP is a big part of the destruction of 6 million hectares of primary forests every year - some of the most biologically diverse ecological systems in the world. Plenty of facts and figures support this analysis.Reviews of First Edition: "I read the book cover to cover and found it very accurate, informative and good reading.

I potty trained my kids on it and they refuse to sit on a cold seat."" Keith Chamblin, Hygiene For Health (perhaps the most knowledgeable bidet marketer in the U.S.)"As far as I can see, the book is a comprehensive bidet-bible of sorts (with an impressive circulation rate). Personally, I love the no-holds-barred attitude towards both subject matter and um...vocabulary". - Julie Geoghan, Duravit Corp."Your work will be very helpful to wake up Americans to the reality of the bidet." - Jorge Rebagliati, Bidematic Bidet System
