Dr. Michael W. Fox's book, "One Health: Veterinary, Ethical, and Environmental Perspectives," emphasizes the crucial connections between human well-being, animal health, and environmental integrity. He highlights pressing issues like zoonotic diseases and climate change that threaten biodiversity. Fox advocates for a cognitive shift towards recognizing the intertwined fates of all species, arguing that this holistic approach is essential for devising effective strategies to address current global crises. The book serves as a guide for promoting coexistence and rewilding through a shift in our perspectives and relationships with nature.
"I wrote this book to help restore the links between public health, animal health and welfare, environmental protection, and biodiversity restoration."
"The rising incidence of zoonotic diseases from farmed animals and wildlife in the expanding human population and so-called reverse zoonoses where humans are infecting other species are existential concerns."
