'Absorbing' - The Guardian 'Illuminating' - Vogue ' Fascinating' - Pandora Sykes In Nostalgia historian Agnes Arnold-Forster blends neuroscience and psychology with the history of medicine and emotions to explore the evolution of nostalgia from seventeenth-century Switzerland (when it was held to be an illness that could quite literally kill you) to the present day (when it is co-opted by advertising agencies and politicians alike to sell us goods and policies). It is a fascinating compelling story of a social and political emotion vulnerable to misuse and one that reflects the anxieties of the age. It is also a clear-eyed analysis of what we are doing now how we feel about it and what we might want to change about the world we live in. 'Beautifully compact wide-ranging and enjoyable' - TLS
