The maintenance of human health and the mechanisms by which this is achieved – through medicine, medical intervention and care-giving – are fundamentals of human societies. However, archaeological investigations of medicine and care have tended to examine the obvious and explicit manifestations of medical treatment as discrete practices that take place within specific settings, rather than as broader indicators of medical worldviews and health beliefs. This volume highlights the importance of medical worldviews as a means of understanding healthcare and medical practice in the past.
The volume brings together ten chapters, with themes ranging from a bioarchaeology of Neanderthal healthcare, to Roman air quality, decontamination strategies at Australian quarantine centres, to local resistance to colonial medical structures in South America. Within their chapters the contributors argue for greater integration between archaeology and both the medical and environmental humanities, while the Introduction presents suggestions for future engagement with emerging discourse in community and public health, environmental and planetary health, genetic and epigenetic medicine, ''exposome'' studies and ecological public health, microbiome studies and historical disability studies.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of World Archaeology.

Engaging with the underlying social context in which emotions are a motivational
force, Law and the Passions provides a uniquely inclusive commentary on the significance
and influence of emotions in the history and continuing development of
legal judgment, policy formation, legal practice and legal dogma.
Although the emotionality of the law and the use of emotional tropes in legal
discourse has become an established focus in recent scholarship, the extent to
which emotion and the passions have informed decision-making, decision-avoidance
and legal reasoning – rather than as simply an adjunct – is still a matter for
critical analysis. As evidenced in a range of illustrative legal cases, emotions have
been instrumental in the evolution of key legal principles and have produced many
controversial judgments. Addressing the latent influence of fear, hate, love and
compassion, the book explores the mutability of law and its transformative power,
especially when faced with fluctuating social mores. The textual nature of law and
the impact of literary forms on legal actors are also critically examined to further
elucidate the idea of law-making as both rational and emotional, and significantly
as an essential activity of the empathic imagination. To this end, it is suggested
that critical scholarship on law, the passions and emotions not only advances our
understanding of the inner workings of law, it constitutes a fundamental part of
our moral reasoning, and has the capacity to articulate the conditions for a more
dynamic, adaptable, ethical and effective legal institution.
This interdisciplinary book will be of interest to scholars and students in the
fields of law and literature, legal theory, legal philosophy, law and the humanities,
legal aesthetics, sociology of law, politics, law and policy, human rights, general jurisprudence
and social justice, as well as cultural studies.

Food is a source of nourishment, a cause for celebration, an inducement to temptation, a means of influence, and signifies good health and well-being. Together with other life enhancing goods such as clean water, unpolluted air, adequate shelter and suitable clothing, food is a basic good which is necessary for human flourishing. In recent times, however, various environmental and social challenges have emerged, which are having a profound effect on both the natural world and built environment – such as climate change, feeding a growing world population, nutritional poverty and obesity. Consequently, whilst the relationships between producers, supermarkets, regulators and the individual have never been more important, they are becoming increasingly complicated.
In the context of a variety of hard and soft law solutions, with a particular focus on corporate social responsibility (CSR), the authors explore the current relationship between all actors in the global food supply chain. Corporate Social Responsibility, Social Justice and the Global Food Supply Chain also provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary response to current calls for reform in relation to social and environmental justice, and proposes an alternative approach to current CSR initiatives. This comprises an innovative multi-agency proposal, with the aim of achieving a truly responsible and sustainable food retail system. Because only by engaging in the widest possible participatory exercise and reflecting on the urban locale in novel, material and cultural ways, is it possible to uncover new directions in understanding, framing and tackling the modern phenomena of, for instance, food deserts, obesity, nutritional poverty and social injustice. Corporate Social Responsibility, Social Justice and the Global Food Supply Chain engages with a variety of disciplines, including, law, economics, management, marketing, retailing, politics, sociology, psychology, diet and nutrition, consumer behaviour, environmental studies and geography. It will be of interest to both practitioners and academics, including postgraduate students, social scientists and policy-makers.
