"For more than forty years, librarians and others have come to rely on Kronick's knowledge and expertise of the history and development of scientific journals. This volume brings together for the first time a collection of fifteen articles that discuss particular aspects of scientific communication from the early days of its ascendancy - before the "information explosion." These essays examine such topics as editorial policy in the early journals, the economic side of scientific publishing in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, journal indexing, early modern scientific networks, and authorship and authority. "Devant'le Deluge" and Other Essays on Early Modern Scientific Communication constitutes a body of work that reveals both the richness and scope for further inquiry that has motivated Kronick for decades. All are topics that librarians, as well as students and scholars interested in the philosophy, sociology, history and rhetoric of science, will be certain to find enlightening and inspiring."--BOOK JACKET.
