Rachel Carson passionately discusses the devastating effects of pesticides and harmful chemicals on nature and human life in her hard-hitting book, Silent Spring. It documents the detrimental effects of DDT on plants, animals and humans.
In spite of many desperate attempts on the part of chemical industries to ban the book, Carson managed to create a global awareness of the condition of the environment through her work, making this one of the most influential books of the twentieth century.
