IV The MULTIPLICITY OF JOURNALS
Abstract
My contribution to the afternoon's discussion is confined to some thoughts on the multiplicity of journals. We have heard the definition of a periodical, but my own favourite definition is that of the first to be published in Britain, the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. Its avowed purpose was to be ‘A convenient Register for the bringing in and preserving of many experiments, which, not enough for a book, would else be lost’.
