The Overproduction of Truth

Více o knize

Gianfranco Pacchioni has produced a sharp book that touches upon a very hot subject which has caused broad concern among committed scientists: the exponential increase in the number of journals and published papers, and the ever increasing use (or abuse) of bibliometric numerical indices. One could hardly put together a better lineup of timely topics. I imagine there could be as many interested readers in this book as there are scientists around the world.
