Uncover the intricate biopolitics of care during Second World War Britain. This compelling study delves into how civil defence initiatives, Mass-Observation records, and wartime rumours shaped everyday life, from home management to the lives of evacuees. Associate Professor Kimberly Mair reveals how official prescriptions and informal social practices constructed the ideal wartime citizen, even contesting the value of animal lives. A vital resource for understanding the social history of war and the nuanced evolution of civic duty.
