Shiny new article by me with @BJHSeditor and @BSHSNews, available via FirstView:
'Ambition, ‘failure’ and the laboratory: Birmingham as a centre of twentieth-century British scientific psychiatry' cup.org/2LYPGdN

ALT Picture of Frederick Mott in the early 20th century - an older man with white hair and a white moustache, on a dark background, wearing a suit, and looking somehow a bit lost.

Yes - if you'd like to review something for @BJHSeditor give me a shout and I'll usually be able to send you a free copy of the book in exchange for 800-1000 well-thought-out words of review in return!

A note to grad students/ppl who don’t know how the book review process works (like me until recently): if there’s a book you are interested in reviewing for a particular journal, contact the book review editor & that person will likely be thrilled to have you write a book review!
