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.
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.

評分這本書援引瞭大量的科學原理和數據,但可以感受到作者字裏行間錶達的悲痛、諷刺和希望。可以想見當時寫下並發錶這本書需要多大的勇氣、決心和智慧。所幸words can make a difference。“Our aim should be to guide natural processes as cautiously as possible in the desired direction rather than to use brute force... Life is a miracle beyond our comprehension, and we should reverence it even where we have to struggle against it.”

19、20世纪以来的科技革命使得人类社会“飞速发展”了。如今,连这个 发展速度本身也在飞速提高着。飞机飞行超过一定加速度的时候,飞行 员就会因超重而黑视,两眼模糊,看不清东西。如今的人类社会就已经 进入了“黑视”状态。我们看不清世界,看不清自己。作为动物的本能...

評分书的内容就不用我评述了,但是翻译的水平、抑或是态度,却让我非常不满。 不知是我的中文阅读水平不到家,还是最近英文看得太多,总之我总感觉这本书看起来疙疙瘩瘩的。
評分寂静的春天,雷切乐在病中写下痛彻心扉却娓娓道来的故事。 当农药泛滥,昆虫肢解,土壤板结,花草带毒,水质败坏,殃及鱼虾,鸟禽瘫痪,走兽灭绝,世界上只剩下了自私的人类,一片寂静与所谓自由,到来了。 法布尔很早就说过:一切都将死去,以便于一切重生。 看清这一排多米诺...
