It also features brand new supporting essays by and informative interviews with prominent scholars of Mass-Observation which reflect on the organisation, its origins and its influence on multiple academic disciplines, including history, sociology and anthropology.

There is also a chronology of Mass-Observation, its publications and major figures associated with it.
