Cat Haiku

Cats have been with us for thousands of year. They are:

Enigmatic friends

Lone hunters, family pets

Our garden tigers

and they too can be a man's best friend. The haiku is an ancient and honourable Japanese verse form - three lines, seventeen syllables - encapsulating a vision of the poem's subject; a person, place, even a cat...

CAT HAIKU presents cats as you've never seen them before. In a series of brilliant vignettes, Deborah Coates gets inside the minds of our cats and comes up with some surprising revelations. You will never look at your (or anyone else's) cat the same way again.

hilarious collection of wise feline words

Engaging and interesting, tightly documented and consistently readable. Freese makes a pasionate plea for a more considered way of treating the earth, its rescources and inhabitants.

—— Daily Telegraph

The incredible story of Britain's black gold.

—— Daily Mail

Fascinating... It lingers hauntingly in the mind.

—— New Statesman

I can think of no substance that has played so important a role in shaping the relative fortunes of competing economies.

—— David Landes, Author of The Wealth and Poverty of Nations

An excellent account of neuroscience today

—— Financial Times

An elegantly written and cogent guide to contemporary ideas about how and why the brain works

Rose has a subtle mind, a prose style of great clarity and a civilised and compassionate approach to what neuroscience tells us about human nature

—— Sunday Times
