I have the first edition, bought nearly 20 years ago. One of the most interesting books that I have ever seen on the subject of film developing. I learned a lot about photochemistry from it, and I can't wait to have the second edition!

Does the book include any information about caffenol and its varied formulations?

- Murray

it does include caffenol but not all of its variants
It has forked so many times from the original folgernol that its even hard to keep track

SO far it is a very different book form the previous eds. (I have the 2nd and 3rd)
It is not just a revision, but a legacy.
S.Anchell has put down in writing not only his experience but those of many others, and the chapters before the formulas are very informative and will help those future generations that want to develop film and paper

The section in Enlarged Digital Negatives is very good for those who enjoy alternative processes
