Synopses & Reviews

Rachel Carson combined her love of science and writing in her awardwinning and controversial book, Silent Spring. Revealing the dangers of pesticide use, it brought readers a new awareness of man’s contamination of the environment and ultimately led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency.
