SILENT SPRING REVISITED

Book ID/图书代码: 02000015B77994

English Summary/英文概要: American scientist and author Rachel Carson is said to have sparked the modern day environmental movement with the publication of Silent Spring in 1962. She made vivid the prospect of life without birdsong. But has her warning been heeded?

Fifty years on, Conor Mark Jameson reflects on the growth of environmentalism since Silent Spring was published. His revealing and engaging tale plots milestone events in conservation, popular culture and political history in the British Isles and beyond, tracing a path through the half century since ’zero hour’, 1962.

Around this he weaves his own observations and touching personal experiences,seeking to answer the question: what happened to the birds, and birdsong, and why does it matter?

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 美国科学家兼作家蕾切尔•卡森在1962年发表的《静静的春天》点燃了现代环保运动。她生动的描绘了没有鸟的歌声的人类生活。但是她的警告有没有让人们注意到呢?

康纳•马克•詹姆森回顾了从《静静的春天》发行起的五十年中环境保护主义的发展。他揭露和加入了保护中故事情节里的里程碑事件,热门文化和在不列颠群岛和其他地区的政治史中,追溯自1962年‘关键时刻’起的半个世纪。

在这之中,他开始了他自己的观察和感人的个人经历,寻找问题的答案,‘在鸟儿和鸟鸣上发生了什么?为什么这很重要?’(YYW)
