Very happy to have contributed to the final text in this series, which focuses on smell. My chapter considers the relationship between olfactory aesthetics and rewilding. The book is Open Access, and is available to download here: uwestminsterpress.co.uk/site/books/e/1…

Our book cover is finally here!

Coming May 2024

Let's be completely clear. This is not a 'broken' food system. This is a system brilliantly designed to enable *some* businesses to 'financialise' food so that they make enormous profits from it. And society picks up the true costs. theguardian.com/society/2023/d…

Good to see this out. It cites the submission by Hannah Pitt and I, and mentions my research about Morocco and agricultural wages.

Great to see the new Future Gen Cymru strategy featuring a focus on food and at least 2 Geography & Planning alumni!
