My latest article for Health and History @anzshm.bsky.social explores how emotion helped establish new hygienic norms in turn-of-the-century Sydney, revealing how disgust and pride motivated both compliance with and resistance to public health policies on plague and TB: dx.doi.org/10.1353/hah....

Emotions and Society has just published a review of my book 'Uncertainty and Emotion in the 1900 Sydney Plague' and recommends it for students from high school to postgrad. Read it here: bristoluniversitypressdigital.com/view/journal... #EmoSoc @jonathangheaney.bsky.social @bupjournals.bsky.social

Very pleased with this book review by the esteemed Peter Hobbins: "As an entrée to the affective impact of disease in the Australian historical context, it has much to recommend it". @jas-jozstudies.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

An interesting interpretation of my book by Kristen Foley for Emotions: History, Culture, Society. "Barr’s book is relevant to readers across broad fields including political science, public health and the broader scope of humanities..." brill.com/view/journal...
