350 years of scientific publishing | Royal Society
Philosophical Transactions, first published in 1665, pioneered the concepts of scientific priority and peer review which, together with archiving and dissemination, provide the model for almost 30,000 scientific journals today.
As part of their 350th anniversary celebrations, all Royal Society journals content is free to access until the end of March 2015.
