Sanctioning Laughter in Stalin's Soviet Union
Laughter and humour in Stalin’s Soviet Union have long been considered weapons, wielded most effectively by the state against its (perceived) enemies, but also by the populace in acts of resistance aimed against the repressive regime in which they lived. This article argues that both these perspectives are misleading. The Soviet state in fact had a frequently ambiguous, evolving attitude to humour and its uses. At times, the humour of state and p…

Kenneth M. Pinnow, Lost to the Collective
The failed Russian Revolution of 1905 provoked a ‘suicide epidemic’ that was interpreted by the Bolsheviks as yet another demonstration of the pernicious effects capitalism had upon a society crying out for change. But after the successful Revolution of 1917, suicide did not suddenly disappear. Instead, it was to remain an uncomfortable reminder for the Bolsheviks that their expectation of a pristine new society to accompany the political sea cha…
Undernutrition should be the first priority
Undernutrition should be the first priority Madam, Public Health Nutrition is now established as an international journal, and you are to be congratulated for that. But as a regular reader I am disappointed and even somewhat dismayed to find so little coverage of undernutrition, as an issue that is at the heart of public health nutrition

Feeding the world in the new millennium
Food production per head in the world as a whole has begun to level off in the last decade, while the world population continues to grow, risking malnutrition, perhaps even starvation, civil unrest and environmental damage. Very little more land suitable for agriculture is available, and the factors behind the 'green revolution' may not produce further increases. Genetically modified crops offer the possibility of increased yields, but also prese…
Effects of early disease on later growth, and early growth on later disease, in Khartoum infants
Longitudinal data of monthly length and weight measurements, and fortnightly infectious disease records of 167 infants in Khartoum townships, have been examined to determine: (1) whether disease experience in the first 6 months of life is related to growth in the second 6 months and (2) whether growth in the first period is related to disease experience in the second. Using regression techniques to allow for disease measure correlations in the tw…

Classification and definition of protein-calorie malnutrition.
The Eighth Joint Expert Committee on Nutrition of FAO and WHO1 emphasized the need for an accepted classification and definition of protein-calorie malnutrition. There are two pressing reasons for this. Bengoa* summarized the available information about the frequency of protein-calorie malnutrition in different countries. There are many gaps, partly because for some countries there are no data, and partly because data which do exist are not alway…
