Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. University Press of Kansas, Lawrence, KS. 2015. Hardcover. First Printing by Line Number. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Fine. DJ: Fine. Black cloth over boards and spine with bright white lettering on the spine. 337 pp 8vo. America's embrace of synthetic pesticides began when they burst on the scene during World War II and has held steady into the 21st century?for example, more than 90% of soybeans grown in the US in 2008 are Roundup Ready GMOs, dependent upon generous use of the herbicide glyphosate to control weeds. The author investigates the attraction of pesticides, with their up-to-the-minute promise of modernity, sophisticated technology, and increased productivity?in short, their appeal to human dreams of controlling nature. She also considers how they reinforced Cold War assumptions of Western economic and material superiority. With the publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring and the rise of environmentalism there might have marked a turning point in Americans' faith in pesticides, but statistics tell a different story. This book recounts the campaign against DDT that famously ensued; but the book also shows where our notions of Silent Spring's revolutionary impact falter?where, in spite of a ban on DDT, farm use of pesticides in the United States more than doubled in the thirty years after the book was published. As a cultural survey of popular and political attitudes toward pesticides, this book tries to make sense of this seeming paradox. At heart, it is an exploration of the story we tell ourselves about the costs and benefits of pesticides?and how corporations, government officials, ordinary citizens, and the press shape that story to reflect our ideals, interests, and emotions. A clean very presentable copy.
