Publication Details

Edition Version

Science in the Nineteenth-Century Periodical: An Electronic Index was first released (v. 1.0) on 25 January 2005. A second release (v. 2.0) was published on 2 November 2006, incorporating corrections and some additional indexing, and a third (v.3.0) was released on 18 December 2007. In this fourth version we have radically revamped the site by adding in direct electronic links for articles where there was an open access digitised version of the periodical available at the time of publication
