All the books I recommend about healthier materials, environmental medicine, home care, and how to think about exposure risks.

Healthy Design and Architecture

The books I've read, enjoyed, and found useful in learning about both material health and the more "woo-woo" side of holistic design.

Environmental Medicine

Non-fiction books that read like fiction, each about how our invisible environment affects our health in very visible ways.

Anxiety, Risk, and How to Think About Toxic Exposures

There is so much information about non-toxic lifestyle available, and a lot of it is conflicting. Books about making decisions about what to believe, how much to fear, and how to release any unnecessary anxiety.

Home Care

DIY care and cleaning for a healthier home.
