Show More
Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, published in 1962, did more than any other single publication to alert the world to the hazards of environmental poisoning and to inspire a powerful social movement that would alter the course of American history.

It is a compelling portrait of the determined woman behind the publicly shy but brilliant scientist and writer.
