Description de l’éditeur
Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring was first published in three serialized excerpts in the New Yorker in June of 1962. The book appeared in September of that year and the outcry that followed its publication forced the banning of DDT and spurred revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. Carson’s passionate concern for the future of our planet reverberated powerfully throughout the world, and her eloquent book was instrumental in launching the environmental movement. It is without question one of the landmark books of the twentieth century.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

Avis d’utilisateurs
The book
Magnifique book but humanité is not interested because born predator
Effrayant
Très belle plume de Rachel Carson qui sait nous décrire une très probable fin de l’humanité avec tout de même une légère pointe d’espoir que lui confère la science
