As we continue to welcome new and returning students to LSHTM, we have put together a selection of books from our collection about the city of London. From bubonic plague to air pollution, the works collected cover many of the challenges of living in this city over the centuries. Whether you’ve just moved or lived here for years, we hope that you find something interesting about the city’s medical past, present, or future!  <\/p>\n
