BiographyHistory

'Warwick Anderson is ARC Laureate Fellow and Professor in the Department of History and the Centre for Values, Ethics and the Law in Medicine at The University of Sydney. He also has an affiliation with the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science at The University of Sydney and is a Professorial Fellow of the School of Population Health at The University of Melbourne. Trained in medicine (Melbourne) and the history and sociology of science (Melbourne, Pennsylvania), he is internationally renowned for his work at the intersection of medicine, culture and society in the colonial and postcolonial worlds of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He has written extensively on ideas about race, human difference, and citizenship in this period; on postcolonial science studies and, more generally, on science and globalisation. His three single-author books published during the past decade have been awarded numerous prizes.

'His publications include The Collectors of Lost Souls: Turning Kuru Scientists into Whitemen (2008); Colonial Pathologies: American Tropical Medicine, Race, and Hygiene in the Philippines (2006); and The Cultivation of Whiteness: Science, Health and Racial Destiny in Australia (2002).'
