Description
"Rachel Carson and Ecology for Kids explores the life and ideas of American biologist, conservationist, and science writer Rachel Carson, who served as the catalyst of the modern environmental movement. She studied biology in college at a time when few women entered the sciences, and then worked as a biologist and information specialist for the US government and wrote about the natural world for many publications. Carson is best remembered for her book Silent Spring, which exposed the widespread misuse of chemical pesticides in the United States and sparked both praise and fury."--,Provided by publisher.
