Check out their virtual issue of Social History of Medicine on ‘Food the Forgotten Medicine’. What is a virtual issue? Well, as guest editors for an online-only issue of SHM, they have compiled a collection of articles from the journal’s archives on food and medicine. But best of all, they’ve written a wonderful introduction to the subject. It’s a really good special issue.
Go now. The virtual issue is completely free, but only available until September 2016!
