    We can compare the whole cosmic universe with a dark room. Inside
     
    the room a few candles are flickering. With this candle-light the
     
    room is being slightly illuminated. We can call this candle-light as
     
    energy. Centring such energy each universe has developed. Several
     
    similar universes are positioned parallelly.
     
    The universe we are in does not only mean our earth or the solar
     
    system, but everything surrounding makes up our universe. Between
     
    two such adjacent universes there is a huge dark vacant space. By
     
    making an aperture through the wormhole we can cross this dark
     
    vacant space within minutes and go from one universe to another.

    This STEAM biography highlights how scientist and writer Rachel Carson became the author of the groundbreaking book Silent Springand the mother of the modern environmental movement. 
      
    Rachel Carson wasn’t always the Rachel Carson, renowned environmental activist. From her earliest years, Rachel had a passion for nature—to her, it was a fairyland, and she loved to write about her adventures and the creatures she saw. Encouraged by teachers, Rachel wanted nothing more than to study the ocean and its inhabitants. Though unable to finish her PhD due to financial constraints, Rachel found work in science and success as a nature writer. 
      
    In the course of her work, Rachel learned about the harm caused by recently developed pesticides and chemicals that made their way into the environment. Desperate to protect nature for future generations even as her health declined, she penned the famous book Silent Spring—a call to action against the threat of the deadly chemicals. The book is anything but quiet, selling more than 2 million copies and leading directly to changes like the Clean Air Act of 1963 and the Clean Water Act of 1972. 
      
    Kate Hannigan, the author of several award-winning children’s books, brings the mother of the environmental movement to life for a new generation of readers. 
      
    "A soaring tribute to the perceptive naturalist and writer who jump-started the modern environmental movement … (v)ivid and perceptive."—Kirkus Reviews
