Book synopsis

Environmental debates often pit the protection of nature against economic growth. This book reveals that environmentalism has unsuspected roots in consumerism that extend deeper than our everyday dilemmas. It tells of an early confrontation that set the stage for Silent Spring, pushing the dawn of environmental politics back several decades.
