| Description: | “May-Brith Ohman Nielsen has analysed around 300 publications on three great epidemics: cholera, tuberculosis and Spanish flu. What makes the achievement all the more remarkable is that the analysed publications include monographs and articles written in a number of different languages and published in many different countries. This wide and varied selection of publications has enabled Ohman Nielsen to go beyond the strong Anglo-American discourse, and also to identify and analyse issues that are particularly important in Northern or Central European contexts. |
