Daniel Williams reveals how George Eliot, Wilkie Collins, William Thackeray, Thomas Hardy, and Joseph Conrad drew on science, mathematics, philosophy, and the law to cultivate responses to uncertainty as intellectual and cultural concern, and how they both participated in and resisted the ideas of a profoundly numerical age.
