Abstract

This oral history interview, between Philip Barras and Julianne Nyhan, was held on 2 March 2017 in Foster Court, UCL (in Julianne Nyhan’s office). The interview was recorded, and subsequently transcribed by Jessica Salmon. Julianne Nyhan and Philip Barras then iteratively edited and revised the transcript, so as to make its style and form closer to written English.
