Exploring a range of Victorian literature, the book delves into themes of risk as portrayed in political economy, sanitary reform, and exploration. It examines how Victorian society's definitions of identity—pertaining to gender, class, and geography—create a framework for understanding risk. Freedgood argues that when these identities and boundaries become unstable, perceptions of danger and safety become distorted, revealing the precarious nature of societal constructs.
