As pwalker8 pointed out, Silent Spring turned out to be wanting scientific and classifies it as a work of advocacy, of which there are many around these days.

As I indicated previously, whilst I am sure there is a rare exception, most non-fiction books are published well after whatever truth involved has come out and been dealt with. And so far I can't think of an example of even one of these rare books.
