Transactions and Encounters by Josephine Mcdonagh
Victorians were surprised and enchanted as much as threatened by emerging technologies and sciences. This study looks at their reactions, ranging the craze for microscopes, the uncanny possibilities of the telephone, to the weird imagery around androgynous barnacles and mindreading acts.
