industrial economy of print.
Beautifully written and based on painstak¬
ing research, Victorian Sensation offers a new
approach to literary history, the history of
reading, and the history of science. Profusely
illustrated and full of fascinating stories, it is
the most comprehensive account of the
making and reception of a book (other than
the Bible) ever attempted.
