How Rachel Carson, Jane Jacobs, Jane Goodall, and Alice Waters Changed Our World
Omschrijving
Rachel Carson warned us about poisoning the environment; Jane Jacobs fought for livable cities and strong communities; Jane Goodall demonstrated the indelible kinship between humans and animals; and Alice Waters urged us to reconsider what and how we eat. This is the story of four visionaries who profoundly shaped the world we live in today: their efforts ignited a transformative progressive movement and formed the bedrock of 1960s counterculture. Together, these women—linked not by friendship or field, but by their choice to break with convention—showed what one person speaking truth to power can do.
