Explanation:

Rachel Carson published "Silent Spring" in 1962. It focused on the environmental impacts of agricultural chemicals and pesticides, raising national environmental awareness. She did not close the gap between biological and social - sciences as described, died in 1964 not 1862, and the 1949 claim is not associated with her well - known work.

Answer:

She published a book in 1962 about the effects of the agricultural use of chemicals and pesticides on the environment and spurred a new national awareness of the environment.
