Soil and Health Library

This website provides free downloadable e-books about radical agriculture,
natural hygiene/nature cure and self-sufficient homestead living. There are
secondary collections involving social criticism and transformational
psychology.

There is no fee for downloading anything in this library.

The library’s topic areas connect agricultural methods to the health and
lifespan of animals and humans. A study of these materials reveals how to
prevent and heal disease and increase longevity, suggests how to live a
more fulfilling life and reveals social forces working against that
possibility.
The Free Digitalized Library: There are four subject areas:

*Radical Agriculture. * The nutritional quality of food determines the
health of animals and humans. Food quality is primarily determined by soil
fertility. This section includes key books that began the organic farming
and gardening movement. There is a broad collection of materials by William
Albrecht, books and papers by Victor Tiedjens and also from the BioDynamic
movement. Go to the Agriculture Library.

*The Restoration and Maintenance of Health.* Here are three collections
that focus on healing  disease and building/maintains health with dietary
reform. There are books advocating several parallel approaches including
natural hygiene/nature cure, iridiagnosis and naturopathy. There is also
a collection concerning longevity and nutritional anthropology. There is a
collection of old medical texts, mostly concerning herbalism. Go to the Health
Library

*Achieving Personal Sovereignty.* Physical, mental, and spiritual health
are linked to lifestyle. This collection focuses on liberating activities,
especially homesteading and the skills it takes to do that—small-scale
entrepreneuring, achieving financial independence, frugality, and voluntary
simplicity. There is also a collection of social criticism, especially from
a back-to-the-land point of view. Go to the Personal Sovereignty Library.

personal development in an independent manner. Go to the Spiritual Freedom
Library.

*Clippings and Miscellaneous.* Since this library’s beginning patrons have
sent information and URLs where interesting bits of information and
viewpoints could be found. Here you will find articles and essays and etc.

*Discussion Group**. *On this Yahoo-hosted e-mail forum a wide ranging
discussion goes on about how different agricultural and gardening methods
change the nutritional qualities of food, about the resulting health of the
animals and humans that eat those foods, about the best ways to homestead,
to grow your own food. This group is gently moderated by Steve Solomon.
Most points of view and opinions are welcome so long as they exhibit a
respect for the viewpoints of others. To join the group, click here
