In Nostalgia, historian Agnes Arnold-Forster blends neuroscience and psychology with the history of emotions and medicine to chronicle the changing social attitudes to this slippery and ‘dangerous’ emotion. In A Body Made of Glass, Caroline Crampton reflects on the cultural history of hypochondria from Hippocrates to the wellness industry, and her own experience with medical anxiety. Both authors speak with Gavin Francis about invisible, illusive conditions.
