The Cost of Cleanness is a book written by Ellen Henrietta Richards in 1908. The book explores the true cost of cleanliness and hygiene in modern society, and the impact it has on both individuals and the environment. Richards argues that while cleanliness is important for health and wellbeing, the methods used to achieve it often come at a significant cost.Throughout the book, Richards discusses the various ways in which cleanliness is achieved, such as through the use of soap, water, and other cleaning products. She also examines the environmental impact of these methods, including the pollution of water sources and the depletion of natural resources.Richards also explores the social and economic costs of cleanliness, such as the time and money required to maintain a clean home or workplace. She argues that the emphasis on cleanliness in modern society has led to a culture of consumerism, where people are encouraged to buy more and more cleaning products in order to achieve an unattainable level of cleanliness.Overall, The Cost of Cleanness is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges readers to consider the true cost of cleanliness in their own lives and in society as a whole. It remains a relevant and important work today, over a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
