The Revolt Against Chemicals (1955)

By Raymond Bernard

Book Overview

The Revolt Against Chemicals is a non-fiction book written by Raymond W. Bernard and first published in 1955. The book explores the growing public concern about the use of chemicals in agriculture, industry, and everyday life. Bernard argues that the widespread use of synthetic chemicals is causing environmental damage, health problems, and social upheaval. He examines the history of chemical development and regulation, and discusses the role of corporations, government, and individuals in the chemical industry. The book also includes case studies of communities affected by chemical pollution, and offers suggestions for alternative approaches to agriculture and industry that are more sustainable and less harmful to the environment and human health. Overall, The Revolt Against Chemicals is a thought-provoking analysis of the social and environmental costs of chemical use, and a call to action for a more responsible and sustainable approach to technology and development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
