Publisher's Note
A new edition of one of the most influential books of the last fifty years. After its publication in 1962, Carson's concern for the future of the planet spread throughout the world. Her book helped to launch the environmental movement.
Rarely does a single book alter the course of history, but Rachel Carson's Silent Spring did exactly that. The outcry that followed its publication in 1962 forced the government to ban DDT and spurred revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. Instrumental in launching the environmental movement, Carson's book is without question one of the landmark books of the twentieth century.

Industry reviews
"Her book is a cry to the reading public to help curb private and public programs which by use of poisons will end by destroying life on earth."
New York Times Book Review - Lorus Milne (10/06/1996)
