Recenzje

Odor history is presented here convincingly as an integral part of a broad social history. So no further "hyphen story", but an innovative approach to questions about body concepts, sociability, space, gender, materiality, consumption or even politics and religion. Tullett's pointed theses offer enormous potential for connection and contradiction.
