Julie has loved rock climbing for as long as she can remember. What's more, she's good at it. Very good. So it only seems natural for her to do all she can to make a career out of it. But it's not easy. Not when there is so much resistance to women guides in the field ... and not when macho know-it-alls like David Hales keep showing up--and showing her up! Sure, David is internationally recognized. Sure, he's won competitions and awards. But that doesn't mean he's better than she is. All she has to do is convince her boss ... and herself. But what Julie doesn't know is that David isn't out to take her job. As a matter of fact, he's got something much different in mind ... something that has nothing to do with jobs or even rock climbing--and everything to do with love and faith in God. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Karen F. Stein University of Rhode Island, Kingston, USA Rachel Carson is the twentieth century’s most significant environmentalist. Her books about the sea blend science and poetry as they invite readers to share her celebration of the ocean’s wonders. Silent Spring, her graphic and compelling exposé of the damage caused by the widespread aerial spraying of persistent organic pesticides such as DDT, opened our eyes to the interconnectedness of all living beings and the ecological systems we inhabit. Carson’s work challenges our belief that science and technology can control the natural world, asks us to recognize our place in the world around us, and inspires us to treat the earth respectfully. She calls us to rekindle our sense of wonder at nature’s power and beauty, and to tread lightly on the earth so that it will continue to sustain us and our descendants. This book guides readers on a journey through Carson’s life and work, considers Carson’s legacies, and points to some of the continuing challenges to sustainability. It provides a listing of resources for reading, learning, or teaching about the environment, about nature writing, and about Carson and the crucial issues she addressed.
