This is an interdisciplinary collection of essays entitled Medical Humanity and Inhumanity in the German-Speaking World, co-edited by Mererid Puw Davies and Sonu Shamdasani and published in Open Access by UCL Press in 2020. The publication emerged from a long-running collaborative research project at UCL's Department of German exploring ways in which ideas about the human and humane, and the inhuman and inhumane intersect in thinking and artworks about medicine in the German-speaking world. The project involved a series of seminars with papers given by speakers from the German Department, UCL as a whole and beyond, and was jointly organised by colleagues in German.
