Now recognized as one of the most influential books of the twentieth century, Silent Spring exposed the destruction of wildlife through the widespread use of pesticides. Despite condemnation in the press and heavy-handed attempts by the chemical industry to ban the book, Rachel Carson succeeded in creating a new public awareness of the environment which led to changes in government and inspired the ecological movement.

Review
“Very few books change the course of history. Those that do includeSilent Spring.” —Linda Lear, author of Rachel Carson: Witness for Nature
“Carson’s books brought ecology into popular consciousness.” —Daily Telegraph
“Rachel Carson educated a planet... One of the most effective books ever written.” —Guardian

Silent Spring《寂靜的春天》一書，作者以女性作傢特有的生動筆觸，詳盡細緻地講述瞭以DDT為代錶的殺蟲劑的廣泛使用，給我們的環境所造成的巨大的、難以逆轉的危害。正是這個指嚮人類自身的潛在而又深遠的威脅，讓公眾突然意識到環境問題十分嚴重，從而開啓瞭群眾性的現代環境保護運動。不僅如此，卡遜還尖銳的指齣瞭，環境問題的深層根源在於人類對於自然的傲慢和無知，因此，她呼籲人們要重新端正對自然的態度，重新思考人類社會的發展道路問題。
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.  

蕾切爾·卡遜，1907年5月27日生於匹茲堡附近的泉溪鎮，1932年獲約翰·霍布金斯大學生物學碩士學位，1936～1952年在美國魚類與野生生物調查署工作。著作有《海風之下》（1941）、《我們周圍的海》（1951）、《海之邊緣》（1955）、《寂靜的春天》（1962）。1963年入選美國藝術與科學學院院士。1964年4月14日因患病去逝。1980年被追授美國總統自由勛章。
Rachel Carson (1907-64) wanted to be a writer for as long as she could remember. Her first book, Under the Sea Wind, appeared in 1941. Silent Spring, which alerted the world to the dangers of the misuse of pesticides, was published in 1962. Carson’s articles on natural history appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, the New Yorker, Reader’s Digest and Holiday. An ardent ecologist and preservationist, Carson warned against the dumping of atomic waste at sea and predicted global warming. The Edge of the Sea, which completed her biography of the sea, is also published in Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics. Rachel Carson died of cancer at the age of 56.

There was once a town in the heart of America where all life seemed to live in harmony with its surroundings. The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms, with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields. In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of color that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines. Then foxes barked in the hills and deer silently crossed the fields, half hidden in the mists of the fall mornings.
Along the roads, laurel, viburnum and alder, great ferns and wildflowers delighted the traveler’s eye through much of the year. Even in winter the road- sides were places of beauty, where countless birds came to feed on the berries and on the seed heads of the dried weeds rising above the snow. The country- side was, in fact, famous for the abundance and variety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was pouring through in spring and fall people traveled from great distances to observe them. Others came to fish the streams, which flowed clear and cold out of the hills and contained shady pools where trout lay. So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settl
