It just so happened that I read this book directly after reading Silent Spring and it definitely packed a bigger punch as a result. It's a look at all of the chemicals farmers use, and the history of how chemical farming got to be the behemoth that it is. If either Silent Spring or this book don't make you consider eating 100% organic, then you're missing something.
