Abstract: "The essays in this collection explore the influence of nineteenth-century culture on the rise of these sciences, investigating the emergence of marginal sciences such as scriptural geology and spiritualism. Repositioning Victorian Sciences is an addition to our understanding of nineteenth-century science in its original context, and will also be of interest to those studying the era as a whole."--Jacket.
