Rezensionen

"Insisting that we approach COVID-19 as a real-world problem, authors explore how ideas and practices of intimacy, sustainability and science were both affected by and shaped through the pandemic. In doing so, this volume strengthens the case for inter-disciplinarity as crucial in the tackling of global crises."
