Distinguished Teaching Visitor, Jonathan Lamb, published "The Things Things Say" in 2011, and since then has been at work on a book provisionally entitled, "Scurvy, the Disease of Discovery."  This has resulted in a new interest in perceptual distortions and hallucinations, especially those of the eye.  He was a Caird Fellow at the National Maritime Museum (Greenwich) 2011-12, and a Guggenheim Fellow 2012-13, chiefly working in Cambridge.
