520    Malaria was considered one of the most widespread disease-
       causing entities in the nineteenth century. It was 
       associated with a variety of frailties far beyond fevers, 
       ranging from idiocy to impotence. And yet, it was not a 
       self-contained category. The reconsolidation of malaria as
       a diagnostic category during this period happened within a
       wider context in which cinchona plants and their most 
       valuable extract, quinine, were reinforced as objects of 
       natural knowledge and social control. In India, the 
       exigencies and apparatuses of British imperial rule 
       occasioned the close interactions between these histories.
       In the process, British imperial rule became entangled 
       with a network of nonhumans that included, apart from 
       cinchona plants and the drug quinine, a range of objects 
       described as malarial, as well as mosquitoes. Malarial 
       Subjects explores this history of the co-constitution of a
       cure and disease, of British colonial rule and nonhumans, 
       and of science, medicine and empire.
