Abstract

This handbook delves into the innovative intersection of health and environmental humanities, capturing its multidisciplinary creative spirit by showcasing key concepts and tools, on-the-ground applications, and conversations. The handbook captures the dynamism of the cross-disciplinary dialogue between these fields through a unique approach. It blends the elements of a traditional handbook with novel interventions. The collection features academic pieces across three sections – Concepts; Methods; and Case studies. Each of these sections also includes short provocations and contributions from artists, practitioners, and activists in these fields, interspersed with "conversation" pieces. The handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars in health humanities, medical humanities, and environmental humanities, as well as related disciplines such as history, literary studies, philosophy, anthropology, and geography.
