May we introduce Emily Underwood, to whom you’ve already been introduced because for years she’s been writing guest posts here, like the one about her suicidal hamster. She writes about neuroscience, the environment, mental health, and of course everything else. Her bio is here; her first official post is tomorrow, 1/3/2018. She’s one of the most delicately civilized people on earth. She spends a lot of time — as she and Kenneth Grahame say and as Helen so redoubtably illustrates — messing about in boats.
