Nature Book Series: The Beaver Book

Hugh Warwick is an ecologist and writer. In April 2014 Reaktion Books published his illustrated monograph on the iconography of the hedgehog and his later book Linescapes (2017) investigates the impact that the lines we make have on the capacity of wildlife to thrive. Hugh is also the author of The Hedgehog Book, published in September 2020. In addition to writing, Hugh has also engaged in public speaking, from primary schools to postgraduate research groups via the WI and Wildlife Trusts.

With record numbers of beavers set to be reintroduced across the UK in 2021, securing the place of this mammal in the country’s ecosystem for generation’s to come, this is both a relevant and timely publication.
