The Hand of Science

About this book

"The Hand of Science covers the collaborative character of science and scholarship. The world of scholarly communication is evolving with breathtaking speed, propelled by the Web and the rapid transition from paper to electronic journals; the scale of the research effort by an individual is moving toward research conducted by tens or hundreds of scientists scattered all over the globe. Cronin presents compelling information regarding this shift in our society with this unique book."--Jacket.
