She carries weighty learning lightly - embracing everything relevant, from dubious neuroscience to cod sociology.' - The TelegraphIn Nostalgia: A History of a Dangerous Emotion, Agnes Arnold-Forster blends neuroscience and psychology with the history of medicine and emotions to explore the evolution of nostalgia from its first identification in 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).Nostalgia is a social and political emotion, vulnerable to misuse, and one that reflects the anxieties of the age. It is one of the many ways we communicate a desire for the past, dissatisfaction with the present and our visions for the future.

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.'Arnold-Forster belongs to that valuable non-jargon-spouting breed of academic who is capable of explaining complex ideas in simple language.' - The Times A dazzling history of a dangerous emotion, by acclaimed historian Agnes Arnold-Forster.
