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.

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.
一个无可辩驳的事实是:这个女人改变了历史,或者说促进了历史!
评分知道这本书和它的作者完全是因为《三体》,第一反应甚至把它想象成了一部小说。。。显然我忽略了,作者是科学家,叶文洁也是,她们要靠数据和分析说话。。。正文300来页,list of principal sources就有50多页。。。有点啰嗦,可读性一般,可是真的需要大家一直读下去。
评分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....
评分想起滴滴涕等農藥在我國應用的時間, 不禁生起了一絲希望. 或者我國90後已經有抗藥性了. 中國人將稱霸全世界
评分The sedge is wither'd from the lake, And no birds sing
