Books

‘This Mortal Coil’: How the Modern Body was Made (Oxford University Press, forthcoming)

Matters of the Heart: History, Medicine and Emotion (Oxford University Press 2010). Highly Commended by the History Today Book of the Year 2011 award.

Reviewers say: "Detailed case studies are seamlessly interwoven with thoughtful and thought-provoking analysis." - Zaheer Baber, Times Literary Supplement and "Refreshingly novel" - Bill Bynum, The Lancet.

Medicine, Emotion and Disease, 1700-1950 Ed. (Palgrave, 2006)

Reviewers say: " It is a volume which speaks to medicine, psychology and cultural studies as well as to the histories of science and the clinic, and one that can feed much-needed interactions." - Professor John V. Pickstone, University of Manchester, UK; "[A] tightly edited, well-integrated collection, exploring important and original subject matter from many different, yet complementary angles. Its cumulative impact is much more than the sum of its parts...this is a very valuable collection." - Malcolm Nicolson, Centre for the History of Medicine, University of Glasgow, UK and "...the editor should be complimented for bringing together a series of fascinating enquiries into these most vexing of human states." - Jonathan Sawday, Medical History.
