Science, Reform, and Politics in Victorian Britain: The Social Science Association 1857-1886 Book

Goldman examines the origins of social policies in the mid-Victorian period from the 1850s to the 1880s. He focuses on the Social Science Association, a remarkable organisation whose debates on Victorian society attracted many eminent and powerful contributors. The Association is famous for its influence over many different social policies including the emancipation of women: it was, indeed, the first and most important arena for the pioneer British feminists. Goldman sets the SSA in the context of its age, and explains its relevance to politics, social life and intellectual development.Read More
