V. good to receive copies of @DrJonWinder's new book, 'Designed for Play', the latest (18th) title in @RoyalHistSoc's New Historical Perspectives book series for early career historians. Jon's book is available free OA and in print @UoLPress bit.ly/3VBUN4V 1/2

.@RoyalHistSoc is deeply concerned by the scale and speed of further #History redundancies @GoldsmithsUoL. These cuts will remove student choice, wreak havoc on careers, and end specialist teaching and research. Our statement: bit.ly/3zO2nAF #twitterstorians 1/5 🧵⬇️

Great opportunity for someone to join the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation , in Los Angeles, as an Assistant Curator. Any @HistoryofDesign graduates interested? workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default…
