Rabies was a constant threat in Victorian Britain and gripped popular
imagination, not least because its human form, hydrophobia, produced a
vile death with the mind and body out of control. This book explores the
changing understanding of rabies amongst veterinarians, animal welfare
campaigners, state officials, politicians and the public.
