"The edge of the sea is a strange and beautiful place." A book to be read for pleasure as well as a practical identification guide, The Edge of the Sea introduces a world of teeming life where the sea meets the land. A new generation of readers is discovering why Rachel Carson's books have become cornerstones of the environmental and conservation movements. New introduction by Sue Hubbell. (A Mariner Reissue)
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.
Sue Hubbell is the author of, among other works, A Country Year and A Book of Bees, which was selected as a New York Times Notable Book. She lives in Maine and Washington, D.C.

評分文/吴情 谈及大海,我们总容易想起“东临碣石,以观沧海。水何澹澹,山岛耸峙。”这样的诗句,表达个人胸中的感叹;我们也会轻声吟诵“面朝大海,春暖花开”,讴歌大海的梦幻迷离。不过,我们多数人很少会关注到海陆界限——海滨的真实模样和现状。沧海桑田,世事变迁...
