Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, published in 1962, did more than any
other single publication to alert the world to the hazards of
environmental poisoning and to inspire a powerful social movement
that would alter the course of American history. This definitive,
sweeping biography shows the origins of Carson's fierce dedication
to natural science--and tells the dramatic story of how Carson,
already a famous nature writer, became a brillant if reluctant
reformer. Drawing on unprecendented access to sources and
interviews, Lear masterfully explores the roots of Carson's
powerful connection to the natural world, crafting a " fine
portrait of the environmentalist as a human being" (Smithsonian).
