First published by Houghton Mifflin in 1962, Silent Spring alerted a large audience to the environmental and human dangers of indiscriminate use of pesticides, spurring revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. "Silent Spring became a runaway bestseller, with international reverberations . . . It is] well crafted, fearless and succinct . . . Even if she had not inspired a generation of activists, Carson would prevail as one of the greatest nature writers in American letters" (Peter Matthiessen, for Time's 100 Most Influential People of the Century). This fortieth anniversary edition celebrates Rachel Carson's watershed book with a new introduction by the author and activist Terry Tempest Williams and a new afterword by the acclaimed Rachel Carson biographer Linda Lear, who tells the story of Carson's courageous defense of her truths in the face of ruthless assault from the chemical industry in the year following the publication of Silent Spring and before her untimely death in 1964.
Rachel Carson (1907-1964) spent most of her professional life as a marine biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. By the late 1950s, she had written three lyrical, popular books about the sea, including the best-selling The Sea Around Us, and had become the most respected science writer in America. She completed Silent Spring against formidable personal odds, and with it shaped a powerful social movement that has altered the course of history.
最初读的动力是因为...Carson是海洋生物学家..还是看中文的吧吧吧....

评分我要是有机会就把它读给小学生听 问题是这本书也就适合给小学生以及以下的人看
评分这本书援引了大量的科学原理和数据,但可以感受到作者字里行间表达的悲痛、讽刺和希望。可以想见当时写下并发表这本书需要多大的勇气、决心和智慧。所幸words can make a difference。“Our aim should be to guide natural processes as cautiously as possible in the desired direction rather than to use brute force... Life is a miracle beyond our comprehension, and we should reverence it even where we have to struggle against it.”

评分《寂静的春天》描述了农药所带来的一连串连锁反应。它导致地表下和地下海受到污染、土壤贫瘠、生物链断口,最后发生一场无人幸免的天灾。这种惊世骇俗的预言招到了各方的抨击。因为,当时在政策中还没有“环境”这一条款时,她以《寂静的春天》为扩音器,在1962年,大声喊出了...
