«Primavera silenciosa» is the popular science essay by Rachel Carson, published by Booket in paperback (384 pages, in Spanish).
The work denounces the harmful effects that the massive use of chemical products such as pesticides, and DDT in particular, causes in nature. Carson combines scientific rigor with clear language and concrete examples to alert about the pollution of the Earth and explain natural processes that few scientific texts had managed to make accessible. The book transcended the academic sphere and became a reference for modern environmental awareness.
Published in 2010 within the Drakontos Bolsillo collection, with a Spanish translation by Joandomènec Ros. The original English edition is from 1962.
Aimed at readers interested in the history of ecology and in the dissemination of environmental problems from a scientific and social perspective.
Rachel Louise Carson was an American marine biologist, writer, and conservationist whose sea trilogy (1941–1955) and book Silent Spring (1962) are credited with advancing marine conservation and the global environmental movement.
