The
Toilet Papers
Recycling Waste and Conserving Water
by Sim Van der Ryn
A
classic is back in print! One of the favorite books of 1970s back-to-the-landers,
The Toilet Papers is an informative, inspiring, and irreverent
look at how people have dealt with their wastes through the centuries.
In a historical survey, Van der Ryn provides the basic facts concerning
human wastes, and describes safe designs for toilets that reduce
water consumption and avert the necessity for expensive and unreliable
treatment systems. The Toilet Papers provides do-it-yourself plans
for a basic compost privy and a variety of graywater systems.
