Query: Why I will not buy this edition

Having first read "Silent Spring" in 1970 as a crusading, idealistic, and ambitious marine ecology student, and after retiring from a career in marine ecosystem management, I am eager to read it a second time from my perspective 42 years later...until I read in the description who is the author of the foreword to the Kindle edition. I can't believe the publisher allowed a laughable, ignorant huckster such as Al Gore attach his name to such a groundbreaking work. It certainly has spoiled the Kindle edition for me. Guess I'll look for an old copy at Half Price Books.
