The Sense of Wonder : A Celebration of Nature for Parents and Children
Linda J. Lear Rachel L. Carson
HarperCollins Publishers Limited, unknown, 1965
First published more than three decades ago (1965), this reissue of Rachel Carson's award-winning classic brings her unique vision to a new generation of readers. Stunning new photographs by Nick Kelsh beautifully complement Carson's intimate account of adventures with her young nephew, Roger, as they enjoy walks along the rocky coast of Maine and through dense forests and open fields, observing wildlife, strange plants, moonlight and storm clouds, and listening to the "living music" of insects in the underbrush. "If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder." Writes Carson, "he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in." The Sense of Wonder is a refreshing antidote to indifference and a guide to capturing the simple power of discovery that Carson views as essential to life.In her insightful new introduction, Linda Lear remembers Rachel Carson's groundbreaking achievements in the context of the legendary environmentalist's personal commitment to introducing young and old to the miracles of nature.Kelsh's lush photographs inspire sensual, tactile reactions: masses of leaves floating in a puddle are just waiting to be scooped up and examined more closely. An image of a narrow path through the trees evokes the earthy scent of the woods after a summer rain. Close-ups of mosses and miniature lichen fantasy-lands will spark innocent'as well as more jaded'imaginations. Like a curious child studying things underfoot and within reach, Kelsh's camera is drawn to patterns in nature that too often elude hurried adults'a stand of beech trees in the springtime, patches of melting snow and the ripples from a pebble tossed into a slow-moving stream.The Sense of Wonder is a timeless volume that will be passed on from children to grandchildren, as treasured as the memory of an early-morning walk when the song of a whippoorwill was heard as if...

The Sense of Wonder : A Celebration of Nature for Parents and Children
Rachel Carson, Linda Lear (intro.), Nick Kelsh (photographs)
HarperCollins Publishers Limited, HarperCollins, 1998, 1965
**First published a half-century ago, Rachel Carson's award-winning __The Sense of Wonder__ remains the classic guide to introducing children to the marvels of nature** In 1955, acclaimed conservationist Rachel Carson—author of __Silent Spring__—began work on an essay that she would come to consider one of her life’s most important projects. Her grandnephew, Roger Christie, had visited Carson that summer at her cottage in Maine, and together they had wandered the surrounding woods and tide pools. Teaching Roger about the natural wonders around them, Carson began to see them anew herself, and wanted to relate that same magical feeling to others who might hope to introduce a child to the beauty of nature. “If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder,” writes Carson, “he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.” Now available in paperback, __The Sense of Wonder__ is a timeless volume that will be passed on from generation to generation, as treasured as the memory of an early-morning walk when the song of a whippoorwill was heard as if for the first time. Featuring serene color photographs from renowned photographer Nick Kelsh, “this beautifully illustrated edition makes a fine gift for new and prospective mothers and fathers” (Gregory McNamee), and helps us all to tap into the extraordinary power of the natural world.

Under the Sea Wind (Classic, Nature, Penguin)
Rachel L. Carson; illustrations by Bob Hines
Penguin Books Ltd, Penguin nature classics, 50th anniversary ed, New York, NY [u.a, 1996
Under the Sea Wind is a classic wilderness adventure to which all nature writing is compared. The special mystery and beauty of the sea is the setting for Rachel Carson's memorable portrait of the sea birds and sea creatures that inhabit the eastern coasts of North America. In a sequence of riveting adventures along the shore, within the open sea, and down in the twilight depths, Rachel Carson introduces us to the winds and currents of the ocean as revealed in the lives of Scomber the mackerel and Anguilla the eel. Life for them is a continuous miracle, a series of life-and-death victories played out among strange and often terrifying life forms far below the surface of the sea. The hero of Under the Sea Wind is soon seen to be life itself, that quicksilver prize granted, for a brief time only, to the clever and the fortunate.

The Sea Around Us, Special Edition
Rachel L. Carson; introduction by Ann H. Zwinger; afterword by Jeffery S. Levinton
Oxford University Press, USA, New edition, 11.12.1991, PS, 1991
<br> Published in 1951, <em>The Sea Around Us</em> is one of the most remarkably successful books ever written about the natural world. Rachel Carson's rare ability to combine scientific insight with moving, poetic prose catapulted her book to first place on <em>The New York Times</em> best-seller list, where it enjoyed wide attention for thirty-one consecutive weeks. It remained on the list for more than a year and a half and ultimately sold well over a million copies, has been translated into 28 languages, inspired an Academy Award-winning documentary, and won both the 1952 National Book Award and the John Burroughs Medal. <p>This classic work remains as fresh today as when it first appeared. Carson's writing teems with stunning, memorable images--the newly formed Earth cooling beneath an endlessly overcast sky; the centuries of nonstop rain that created the oceans; giant squids battling sperm whales hundreds of fathoms below the surface; and incredibly powerful tides moving 100 billion tons of water daily in the Bay of Fundy. Quite simply, she captures the mystery and allure of the ocean with a compelling blend of imagination and expertise.</p> <p>Reintroducing a classic work to a whole new generation of readers, this Special Edition features a new chapter written by Jeffrey Levinton, a leading expert in marine ecology, that brings the scientific side of <em>The Sea Around Us</em> completely up to date. Levinton incorporates the most recent thinking on continental drift, coral reefs, the spread of the ocean floor, the deterioration of the oceans, mass extinction of sea life, and many other topics. In addition, acclaimed nature writer Ann Zwinger has contributed a brief foreword.</p> <p>Today, with the oceans endangered by the dumping of medical waste and ecological disasters such as the Exxon oil spill in Alaska, this illuminating volume provides a timely reminder of both the fragility and the importance of the ocean and the life that abounds within it. Anyone who loves the sea, or who is concerned about our natural environment, will want to read this classic work.</p> <p>Published in 1951, The Sea Around Us is one of the most remarkably successful books ever written about the natural world. </p>

Food from the sea ; fish and shellfish of New England / by Rachel L. Carson.
Carson, Rachel, 1907-1964.
U.S. Govt. Print. Off, 1943., District of Columbia, 1943
"Millions of Americans are developing new wartime food habits, trying foods they once neglected, turning to alternates for long familiar products. For everyone of the ten fish or shellfish that make up mere than four-fifths of New England's catch there are seven species little known or utilized, many of which could provide tasty and nutritious foods. Turning to these under-utilized species will conserve food resources by lifting the burden of over-exploitation from such fishes as cod and haddock and will augment dwindling supplies of protein foods. Exploring the seafood markets for unfamiliar species rewards the housewife and her family with delightful taste surprises, for scarcely any other class of food offers so great a variety, so rich an opportunity for mealtime adventures. Before we can try new foods, we must know what they are- something of their nutritive value, where they come from, how market supplies vary with the season. Our enjoyment of these foods is heightened if we also know something of the creatures from which they are derived, how and where they live, how they are caught, their habits and migrations. This publication provides such an introduction to the more important fish and shellfish of New England."

Havet omkring os
Rachel L. Carson
Gads Forlag : [sælges på internettet, 2020
Havet omkring os er en medrivende, banebrydende fortælling om verdenshavene og livet i dybderne. Bogen udkom første gang i 1951, hvor den blev en international bestseller, og er i dag en uomgængelig klassiker inden for naturbeskrivelser. Meget er sket videnskabeligt, siden Havet omkring os udkom første gang, men Rachel Carsons indsigt og kærlighed til havets skønhed er smittende, og hendes insisteren på at se havet og dets omgivelser som ét sammenhængende økosystem og ikke mindst på at sætte menneskets indgriben i og ødelæggelse af naturen på dagsordenen er mere aktuel end nogensinde.

Primavera silenciosa (ZAPPC) (Spanish Edition)
Rachel L Carson
Editorial Crítica, 1964
Primavera silenciosa es un libro que es preciso conocer ya que aborda uno de los problemas más graves que produjo el siglo XX: la contaminación que sufre la Tierra. Utilizando un lenguaje transparente, el rigor propio del mejor análisis científico y ejemplos estremecedores, Carson denunció los efectos nocivos que para la naturaleza tenía el empleo masivo de productos químicos como los pesticidas, el DDT en particular. Se trata, por consiguiente, de un libro de ciencia que va más allá del universo científico para adentrarse en el turbulento mundo de “lo social”. Su trascendencia fue tal que hoy está considerado uno de los principales responsables de la aparición de los movimientos ecologistas a favor de la conservación de la naturaleza. De hecho, Primavera silenciosa consiguió lo que pocos textos científicos logran: iluminar nuestros conocimientos de procesos que tienen lugar en la naturaleza y despertar el interés de la sociedad tanto por la ciencia que es necesaria para comprender lo que sucede en nuestro planeta, como por la situación presente y futura de la vida que existe en él.

Il mare intorno a noi
Rachel L Carson
Piano B Edizioni srl, Prato, 2019
"In questa storia del mare, madre di ogni forma di vita, Rachel Carson - biologa e simbolo del movimento ambientalista - passa in rassegna le oscure origini dei bacini oceanici, gli antichissimi mari formatisi dopo secoli di piogge incessanti, la potenza delle maree e dei venti che modellano i continenti, il potere distruttivo degli tsunami e le misteriose forme di vita che animano gli abissi, dai microrganismi ai grandi capodogli. Il mare intorno a noi nel corso degli anni ha ispirato un documentario vincitore del premio Oscar e ha conseguito prestigiosi riconoscimenti internazionali, come il National Book Award e la John Borroughs Medal. A quasi sessant'anni dalla prima pubblicazione, con la salute degli oceani minacciata dall'inquinamento, la graduale scomparsa della Barriera corallina e lo scioglimento delle calotte polari, questo libro rappresenta un promemoria sull'importanza e la fragilità degli oceani e della vita che ospitano." -- Sommario fornito dall'editore

<p>"Para mantener vivo en un niño su innato sentido del asombro, se necesita la compañía de al menos un adulto con quien poder compartirlo, redescubriendo con él la alegría, la expectación y el misterio del mundo en que vivimos". Rachel Carson (1907-1964) es universalmente considerada la inspiradora del ecologismo moderno, gracias a su libro La Primavera Silenciosa, en el que denunció el uso indiscriminado del DDT señalando sus dañinas consecuencias para la salud pública y la Naturaleza. El sentido del asombro es probablemente su obra más trascendente y desconocida. Pues más allá de revelar en su vida las agresiones a la naturaleza, su principal legado fue enseñarnos que no hay mejor manera de preservarla que experimentar su grandeza.

The Sea Around Us (1951. 2nd ed. 1961. 2011) [OCEAN TRILOGY #2]
Rachel Carson, Ann H. Zwinger, Jeffrey S. Levinton
Open Road Integrated Media LLC, Ocean Trilogy, vol. 2 (of 3), 2nd ed. 1961; re-ed. Open Road, 2011, 1951
Rachel Carson’s National Book Award–winning classic effortlessly mingles detailed fieldwork and inspiring prose to reveal a deep understanding of the earth’s most precious, mysterious resource—the ocean(first published 1951; 2nd ed. 1961 with new foreword by Rachel Carson) With more than one million copies sold, Rachel Carson’s The Sea Around Us became a cultural phenomenon when first published in 1951 and cemented Carson’s status as the preeminent natural history writer of her time. Her inspiring, intimate writing plumbs the depths of an enigmatic world—a place of hidden lands, islands newly risen from the earth’s crust, fish that pour through the water, and the unyielding, epic battle for survival. Firmly based in the scientific discoveries of the time, The Sea Around Us masterfully presents Carson’s commitment to a healthy planet and a fully realized sense of wonder. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Rachel Carson including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University.

Lure of the Sea: Writings and Photographs (Wilderness Experience)
Rachel Carson, Jack London, Brown, Joseph E., Naomi James, Steve Callahan, Gerry Spiess, Malcom McConnell, Carol McConnell, Hannes Lindemann, Wayne Carpenter
San Diego: Harcourt Brace, The wilderness experience, 1st ed., San Diego, California, 1996
The sea - the world's greatest wilderness - is celebrated in this spirited collection of writings. In essays that range from the contemplative to the urgent, the writers here express their admiration, their fear, and their fascination with the essence of the sea as well as the nature that teems beneath the waves. From a naturalist's perspective to the solo adventures of an intrepid sailor to a curiosity seeker's taste of that staple of the sea - plankton - each essay here represents a special view of the water that surrounds us all. Icebergs and squalls, rogue waves and shark encounters, the sheer exhilaration of open-sea sailing all set the stage for a reading adventure. Fifty-nine full-color photographs bring the smell of salt water even closer, and the thoughtful introductions by editor Joseph E. Brown fit all the writings into a conceptual whole. The result is a bracing deep-water voyage for every reader.
