I’m in London for the Lisa Jardine Grant researching into the early Royal Society’s interest on the stars, the geography, the plants, and nature of Iberian-American worlds. If you’re around, drop me a line and let’s meet for a coffee!

This fantastic collection of bibliographic essays is not just a narrative guide to scholarship about past epidemics but a collective reckoning with the limitations of #histmed #histsci in the face of a pandemic.

All #openaccess and highly recommended.
