Bibliography
Philip Fox in popular scientific literature:
Pages 395-396 in Burnham's Celestial Handbook (Volume 1); the possible duplicity of Sirius B.
A curiosity...
I want to know something about another Fox who's mentioned on pages 394 and 395 in Mysterious Universe, a handbook of astronomical anomalies (William R. Corliss, The Sourcebook Project, 1979), see article Martian Canals after Mariner 9 (David W. Hughes, Nature, 1975). This Fox seems to have been a colleague of Carl Sagan, because both names (Sagan and Fox) are always appearing together, throughout the article. - DannyCaes Apr 27, 2015
It must be Paul Fox, who's mentioned on page 110 of Carl Sagan's COSMOS (Random House, 1980).
See also the online Paul Fox page.
Internet is such a wonderful thing! - DannyCaes Apr 27, 2015
There's also a certain Fox in T.W.Webb's Celestial Objects for Common Telescopes, Volume 2; The Stars (Dover, revised edition 1962).
See page 138, at Rho Herculis (Struve 2161).
