Abstract

Mathias and Moore are among the rare cohort of humanities scholars who approach past literary, cultural and medical concepts with the aim of contextualising current medical models and research findings, while Valeur is among the even rarer cohort of medical researchers and clinicians to see inherent value in humanistic understandings of health. It is the shared premise of all three editors that historical and cultural perspectives enrich the current understanding of microbial ecology, and the science of microbe–host interactions.
