Dnf, this was the book that sparked a lot of discussion about pesticides and their extended effects on the environment.

I was curious about it so I checked it out.

It is very fear monger-y with a lot of half baked anecdotes. It is an important piece but we are all still alive like 60 years later and science has progressed far enough for there to be better sources on pesticides
