Dr. Ian Miller is Senior Lecturer in Medical History at Ulster University. He has authored seven books on the history of medicine and food. Of particular relevance are Ian’s book-length studies on the force-feeding of hunger strikers (2016), Irish dietary change following the devastating Famine (2013) and the surprisingly interesting history of the Victorian stomach (2011).
