Japanese use the same word for "clean" and "beauty."  With cutting-edge green technology and fixtures rendered into works of art, the Japanese bathroom has become an object of fascination and admiration worldwide.  Rose George, author of The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters (Metropolitan Books, 2008), and Gunnar Baldwin, water efficiency specialist for TOTO USA, Japan’s leading luxury plumbing manufacturer, explore high tech and eco innovation in the Japanese bathroom, and the prospects for their wide adoption in the U.S.

Moderated by Scott Clark, Professor, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.

Followed by a book signing and reception.
