The LOA edition here contains Ms. Carson’s famous “Silent Spring” as well as her other environmental works. Her impact on the environmental movement at first created an impression of terrible environmental damage using the studies to justify her contentions unfortunately over time, the studies turned out to be severely flawed based on heavily biased rather than accurate data. Nevertheless, her writings remained although controversial, it fueled the environmental movement of the time. ( )
