摘要
Following the recent focus of media attention on BSE, and the putative link between the cattle disease and cases of variant CJD in humans in the UK, we report two cases of ''BSE phobia.'' The relationship between popular conceptions of science and psychopathology is discussed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Inc.
