- Double-weighted statement
- We have requested that this monograph be double weighted. The book took ten years to research. It is grounded in extensive research on archival material in a number of international locations (including Minneapolis, Harvard, Yale, Jamaica and Chicago). Its interventions into multiple disciplines – literature, medicine and the history of science – meant that a large and disparate body of materials in multiple archives needed to be consulted and analysed. It won the University English book prize 2019
