First published more than three decades ago, this reissue of Rachel Carson's award-winning classic brings her unique vision to a new generation of readers. Stunning new photographs by Nick Kelsh beautifully complement Carson's intimate account of adventures with her young nephew, Roger, as they enjoy walks along the rocky coast of Maine and through dense forests and open fields, observing wildlife, strange plants, moonlight and storm clouds, and listening to the "living music" of insects in the underbrush. "If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder." Writes Carson, "he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in." The Sense of Wonder is a refreshing antidote to indifference and a guide to capturing the simple power of discovery that Carson views as essential to life. In her insightful new introduction, Linda Lear remembers Rachel Carson's groundbreaking achievements in the context of the legendary environmentalist's personal commitment to introducing young and old to the miracles of nature. Kelsh's lush photographs inspire sensual, tactile reactions: masses of leaves floating in a puddle are just waiting to be scooped up and examined more closely. An image of a narrow path through the trees evokes the earthy scent of the woods after a summer rain. Close-ups of mosses and miniature lichen fantasy-lands will spark innocent'as well as more jaded'imaginations. Like a curious child studying things underfoot and within reach, Kelsh's camera is drawn to patterns in nature that too often elude hurried adults'a stand of beech trees in the springtime, patches of melting snow and the ripples from a pebble tossed into a slow-moving stream. The Sense of Wonder is a timeless volume that will be passed on from children to grandchildren, as treasured as the memory of an early-morning walk when the song of a whippoorwill was heard as if for the first time.

读后感

读完《惊奇之心》，我闭上眼睛，静静聆听这个世界的这一角落，聆听自己。 想起不久前自己在笔记本上写下的两行字： 感受生命，把握生命，创造生命。 感受生活，把握生活，创造生活。 如何成为一个可以把握自我生命力的人，是我一直以来所执着追求的梦想。掌握了把握生命力的能...  

《惊奇之心》像一座魔法小屋，吸引我走进，不忍离去。蕾切尔·卡森曾说，假使她对仙女有影响力，她希望上帝赐给每个孩子以惊奇之心，而且终其一生都无法璀璨，能够永远有效对抗以后岁月中的倦怠和幻灭，摆脱一切虚伪的表象，不至于远离我们内心的源泉。 我也希望自己始终保持一...  

《惊奇之心》是美国著名自然文学作家雷切尔·卡森的最后一部著作，也是她生前最想尽力完善的一本书。正如琳达·利尔在前言中所说，这是卡森“献给我们所有人的一份礼物，以纪念我们记忆中的孩提时代”。 何为“惊奇之心”？其实就是一个孩子来到我们这个世界上，对一切事物永远...  

《惊奇之心》是雷切尔•卡森献给我们所有人的一份礼物，以纪念我们记忆中的孩提时代。在这里面的每一篇随笔中，她都抓住了孩子眼中永远对世界怀有惊奇的本质，同时激发了我们内心业已逝去的、希望融入大自然的渴望。与他人不同的是，她的作品充满了探索所带来的喜悦，这也使...

When one’s thoughts are released to roam through the lonely spaces of the universe, can be shared with a child even if you don’t know the name of a single star .

大佬的语言真的好

according to RC, human emotions and senses are the “fertile soil” that nurtures a love of nature: If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow. My dear children...you are very much in luck and in for the greatest treat! NATURE!

这个态度不仅是对自然，对人、对生活、对所有的存在，都应该是打开、欣赏的态度。
