In a world of increasing and constant change, historical perspectives have never been more important. Whether it’s understanding the roots of political and social movements, exploring how earlier scientific and medical discoveries have led to breakthroughs in research, or learning how people in other times and spaces thought and felt about the changes experienced in their lifetimes.

The collection not only serves as an invaluable resource for those within the humanities and social sciences; it also supports and contributes to wider multidisciplinary conversations, enabling those from other fields to enrich their research with an appreciation of how we got to where we are today.
