The Hidden World of the Fox

‘Fascinating insight’ Countryfile ‘Absolutely fascinating’ Jo Good, Radio London ‘Succinct, clear, sophisticated. I couldn't stop reading it’ Jeff VanderMeer ‘A lovely little book … quietly lyrical, often funny and gently persuasive’ Sunday Times ‘The Hidden World of the Fox does something no other work about them I have read has done – it presents its readers with not only the what’s, why’s, and how’s of foxes, but also a deeply insightful, ecologically informed way to think about them … The amount of general good, for foxes and humans alike, that this relatively short book is capable of achieving in its potential to correct uncountable misunderstandings about one of the planet’s most intriguing and highly adaptable creatures cannot be overstated. For its wealth of biological information about its subject, its author’s innovative focus on encouraging the development of a more ecologically informed perspective about them, and its exquisitely succinct “le mot juste” prose, I highly recommend The Hidden World of the Fox to all readers, be they presently interested in foxes specifically, wildlife generally, or simply enthusiasts of well-written, eye-opening books.’ The Well-read Naturalist ‘A smart and accessible volume. Thanks to a mix of biology, personal history, and pop culture, Brand’s readers will be left both entertained and better informed about “this small, curious member of the dog family”’ Publisher’s Weekly ‘Provides everything you ever wanted to know about the fox’ Kirkus ‘This beautifully written work paying homage to red foxes will appeal to those interested in urban wildlife and the ever-increasing conflicts between humans and other animals’ Library Journal
