It was a book written by Rachal Carson, a marine biologist, and published in 1962. It was a fairly well documented book with overwhelming, and exagerated, social implications, designed to encourage the acceptance of the need for US federal environmental regulations. Primarily, the book sought to exposes the reckless use of the pesticide, DDT. The book, and the publics reaction to it, ultimately led to the banning of its use in the US.
The silent spring, of the title, was an animal metaphor used to predict a world without bird calls: a total die-off of birds. By extension, an undetermined, but detrimental, effect on all life, including human life, was predicted, if nothing were done to protect the deteriorating environment.
This book turned out to be the catalyst that, perhaps more than any other single factor, launched the modern environmental movements.
