Silent Spring (Penguin Twentieth Century Classics S.) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

First published in 1962, Rachel Carson's scientifically passionate exposure of the effects of the indiscriminate use of chemicals is still of vital importance. In her vivid and well-informed text she describes how pesticides and insecticides are applied almost universally to farms, forests, gardens and homes with scant regard to the consequent contamination of our environment and the widespread destruction of wildlife. Carson's message is still relevant today. Silent Spring remains the classic statement which founded a whole movement and should be read by everyone who is concerned about the future of the world.
